Ester Polaina

I am an Environmental Scientist with many interests and one clear objective: finding ways to contribute to the preservation of nature in a durable way, always taking care of the human dimension.

Currently, I am a postdoc researcher at the Unit of Landscape Ecology, Department of Ecology of the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), based on Uppsala. Here, I'm involved in a project aiming to understand the impact of invasive vertebrates under different future scenarios of climate change, coordinated by Dr. Mariano Rodríguez-Recio and in collaboration with Prof. Tomas Pärt.

Besides my main research topics, I enjoy very much approaching formal science to the general public.
