AbstractDr. Andrew E. Derocher
Professor, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Canada; and Chair, IUCN/SSC Polar Bear Specialist Group
Dr. Derocher’s lab focuses on large carnivore ecology, conservation, and management. His interests are to conduct research to improve our understanding the ecology of large carnivores with specific reference to how they are affected by human activities. His research over the past 20 years has focused on polar bears, but he has a broad interest in all carnivores and plans are to expand the number of species as opportunities arise. His main focus will be north of 60° N working in cooperation with territorial and federal government agencies.
