Rita Fortuna, PhD

Welcome to my website!

As an evolutionary and quantitative ecologist, I am motivated to do research that adds to our understanding of fundamental ecological processes, and that helps us predict how wild species will respond to their rapidly changing environments. 

My work combines population dynamics with behavioral ecology and quantitative genetic analyses, and is generally applied to long-term individual-based data from wild populations.
