 PBC Lecture Series: “Landscape connectivity - for better or for worse?"

Speaker: Emily Minor, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Biological Sciences, Institute for Environmental Science and Policy University of Illinois at Chicago

Dr. Minor is a landscape ecologist with an interest in species distributions over large spatial scales. She is particularly interested in how distributions of both native and exotic species are affected by human disturbance and urbanization. She has also become interested in the spatial distribution of ecosystem services within cities and over larger regions.
