Jeremy Cohen, PhD -
Principal Investigator
I am a spatial ecologist and quantitative global change biologist who works with big ecological and remote sensing datasets to ask how and why species and communities are reacting to changing environments from regional to global scales. I intersect ecology, geospatial science, data science and machine learning to explore the drivers of changing wildlife distributions, biodiversity patterns, movement strategies, phenological activity and host-parasite interactions under human pressures. Previously, I was an Associate Research Scientist at Yale University (2021-26), a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2018-20), and a PhD student and postdoc at the University of South Florida (2011-16 PhD, 2017 -18 postdoc).
I’m also an avid birder, wildlife photographer and a big Yankees/Knicks/Islanders fan (and a football team with green/white colors that no longer deserves a mention). I have a three year old who can already ID five bird species by sound.
