WHO WE ARE

Scott Carroll

Founding Director

Scott is an evolutionary ecologist affiliated with the University of California-Davis and the University of Queensland. His group observes and experiments with patterns of ongoing evolution in wild and anthropogenic environments.

​

Scott's research is at the interface of basic and applied evolution. He seeks to use contemporary evolution to better understand adaptive processes, and furthermore, how those processes may be used to develop sustainable, interdisciplinary solutions to evolutionary challenges in food production, medical care, and environmental conservation.
