About Katherine's Work

Kathy's research uses theory and methods from landscape ecology, wildlife biology, biostatistics, landscape genetics and conservation biology to model animal populations, movement, and habitat use in both wildlands and human-dominated landscapes. Kathy also models wildlife connectivity among populations and protected areas so that important corridors can be identified and included in reserve networks. She holds a B.S. in Biology from Tufts University, a M.S. in Environmental Studies from the University of Montana, and a Ph.D. from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst and is a member of the IUCN Connectivity Conservation Specialist Group.
