I am an ecologist and biogeographer interested in how landscapes change through space and time, and how the combination of an interdisciplinary approach and a deep-time perspective can inform global change science and conservation. In my research, I use the perspectives of space and time to investigate the causes of novel ecosystems, the ecological consequences of the extinctions of ice age megafauna like mammoths, and tipping points in global ecosystems.

I am passionate about in women in science, STEM diversity, public science literacy, interactions between scientists and science journalists, how scientists use new media, and increasing disability access at academic conferences... Read more

Dr. William Gunn is the Head of Academic Outreach for Mendeley, a research management tool for collaboration and discovery. Dr. Gunn attended Tulane University as a Louisiana Board of Regents Fellow, receiving his Ph.D in Biomedical Science from the Center for Gene Therapy at Tulane University in 2008. His research involved dissecting the molecular mechanism of bone metastasis in multiple myeloma and resulted in a novel treatment approach employing mesenchymal stem cells, the body's own reparative forces. Frustrated with the inefficiencies of the modern research process, he left academia and established... Read more

There is a pent up demand among this generation's college students to give back altruistically. We should do what we can to help give them opportunities to work globally and locally and bring in their energy and creativity to find solutions to the big problems facing the world. This has several benefits. First, it can provide solutions to these problems. Furthermore, it establishes a habit of giving back and, even more, can make the world a safer place by encouraging connections with people around the world. We can create global citizens who replace feelings of fear of the world with empathy... Read more
