Associate Professor, School of Natural Resources; and Environment
About
Johannes Foufopoulos is a faculty member in the School of Natural Resources and Environment. His research centers broadly on two areas: (i.) the science behind the conservation of wildlife populations and natural ecosystems and (ii.) the ecology of infectious wildlife diseases.
More specifically, he studies how habitat fragmentation, global climate change and emerging pathogens impact global biodiversity and ecosystem function. The research group also investigates the ecology of parasitism and disease in vertebrates by studying the ecological, physiological and evolutionary aspects of host-parasite interactions. To do so, lab members use an integrative approach with methodologies borrowed from field ecology, comparative physiology, ecological immunology, evolutionary biology and population genetics.
