Aberdeen University (UNIABD)

The School of Biological Sciences at Aberdeen University (UNIABD) hosts a large number of ecologists, including 16 academic staff, 22 post-docs and nearly 80 postgraduate students. We study the interactions that determine the distribution and abundance of organisms and seek insights that contribute to the understanding, management and conservation of biological resources. The Ecology group has a high international profile, with recent papers based on collaborations with researchers from a wide range of universities, research institutes and conservation NGO's. Together with the Macaulay Institute we have recently established the Aberdeen Centre for Environmental Sustainability (ACES). At ACES we seek to unify environmental, social and economic approaches through inter-disciplinary science involving policy makers and stakeholders.
