Abstract. Plankton, a diverse group of aquatic organisms, make Earth livable, regulate aquatic life, and provide benefits to human societies such as access

In today's episode, we have our very own director Helmut Hillebrand! He chats to us about the history of how the institute was created (you can follow along here: https://hifmb.de/institute/history/)....

Van Cleve Research Group – theoretical evolution & ecology at the University of Kentucky

Short answer: No. But also yes.

A scrappy science project led to a significant discovery: two new species of a rare organism that could elucidate a fundamental transition in the history of life on our planet.

Over the past century, the generalized Lotka–Volterra (GLV) model has grown from a mathematical curiosity to a cornerstone of theoretical ecology. Here we celebrate the enduring legacy of Lotka and Vo...

I am a marine ecologist and lecturer at the University of Vigo. My work began with microbial plankton communities in the subtropical North Atlantic...

Analysis of nearly 200 human gut microbiome datasets shows that microbial coexistence is governed by a few effective ecological dimensions, rather than the high-dimensional niches assumed by prevailing theory.

Are you excited by ecosystem modeling, climate change and polar oceans? Do you enjoy quantitative work, coding, and turning ecology into equations? We are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate ...
