Mr Nicholas Freymueller
Research Associate (A) (without PhD)
School of Biological Sciences
College of Science
I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Environment Institute's Global Change, Ecology, and Conservation Lab at Adelaide University and the Molecular Ecology and Global Climate Change Group at the Globe Institute (University of Copenhagen). I finished my PhD between the University of Adelaide and the University of Copenhagen in 2025.
I am a paleoecologist and biogeographer interested in extinction and species responses to ecological/climate changes throughout Earth's history. I often apply ecological modeling techniques to understand faunal turnover patterns and ecological response to environmental shifts.
