Exploring the realms of ecological and evolutionary marvels
Research
At the Santiago Lab, we are like detectives solving nature’s mysteries through the lenses of ecology and evolutionary biology. Our research focuses on understanding the intricate relationships between birds and their parasites, and how human activities are disrupting such ecological interactions. We also explore the fascinating connection between physics and biology. Our team of dedicated scientists is committed to conducting innovative research that contributes to the broader scientific community and enhances our understanding of the natural world. Join us in our wild scientific journey!
