Dr Isabelle Onley
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
School of Biological Sciences
Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology
My research interests include combining a variety of disciplines to solve real-world conservation problems that can be translated into policy development, adaptive management strategies and stakeholder engagement. My interests and areas of expertise include reintroduction biology, conservation genetics, ecology, and morphology, with a key focus on innovative approaches to conservation in a changing climate.
