Amy Angert is a Professor at UBC in the Department of Zoology and the Department of Botany. Her research focuses on the evolutionary ecology of species’ geographic distributions, what limits adaptation at the edges of species’ ranges, why closely related species vary by orders of magnitude in range size, and how ranges are likely to shift in response to climatic changes. Her research combines experimental manipulations in the field and in the lab and observations of natural populations with tools from quantitative genetics and physiological ecology.
