The O’Dwyer lab is focused on the question of how ecological mechanisms shift with spatial, temporal, and organizational scale. This question has led to applications in many areas of ecology, and we use and adapt whatever theoretical modeling tools we can get our hands on to answer it. We work with a broad range of ecological data, from tropical forests, to the human microbiome, to white-tailed deer.
