About the Lab
The Laboratory, led by Dr. Michael Blum, pursues research on long-standing and emerging environmental concerns, with a current focus on (1) eco-evolutionary dynamics of carbon cycling and accretion in coastal marshes; (2) the socioecology of infectious disease risk; and (3) ecologically informed rehabilitation of urban watersheds. By addressing fundamental and applied questions in ecology and evolutionary biology, members of the lab aim to improve socioecological sustainability and human well-being.
Interested in joining the lab? Undergraduate students are encouraged to contact Dr. Blum about opportunities to undertake independent or honors research. Likewise, prospective graduate students and postdoctoral researchers should contact Dr. Blum for information about ongoing endeavors and the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.
