Giovanni Strona

I am currently a senior researcher at the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, in Ispra, Italy. I was formerly an Associate Professor in Ecological Data Sciences at the University of Helsinki, in Finland. I am a quantitative ecologist working at the interface between ecology, computer science and physics, trying to unravel the mechanisms controlling the responses of complex natural systems to the multi-faceted threats of Global Change. I am particularly interested in how the effects of diversity loss can propagate through species interaction networks, and in how co-evolutionary and ecological factors can affect this process.
