The lines of research represent the main scientific areas in which our work is currently focused. They constitute the conceptual framework of the institute, structured in a transversal way related to labs and departments.
Consolidated lines
- Mechanisms of evolutionary change and adaptation (evolutionary biology)
- Evolutionary patterns and processes (evolutionary ecology)
- Ecology of populations and conservation of endangered species
- Ecological interactions and maintenance of biodiversity (biodiversity dynamics)
- Global change and biodiversity conservation
There are other emerging research fields
- One health and biodiversity
- Human societies and biodiversity
- Theoretical and Computational Ecology and Evolution
