Species recovery as a half empty process: the case against ignoring social ecology for gray wolf recovery Abstract. The criteria used to assess recovery under the US Endangered Species Act (ESA) often fall short when considering social, group-living species. To

New paper on why the social unit for species conservation is important! Above just counting individuals. Thanks for my amazing coauthors. Wolves 🐺 need our help for a brighter future.

Looking for a post-bac with bioinformatic skills from Princeton? Julian Gottfried (juliansg@princeton.edu) uses theoretical modeling and Bayesian inference for disease ecology or applied conservation. His thesis work with me was analysis of single cell RNA Seq data of pinnipeds. He is excellent!

A preprint about endangered species recovery goals for social species need to use units of social groups (not individuals!). Gray wolves are our example system.
