Biography
I received my BSc degree in Applied Ecology (Czech University of Life Sciences) and earned two MSc degrees: in Ecological Conservation (Cranfield University) and in Forestry, Water and Landscape Management (Czech University of Life Sciences). I obtained my PhD degree in Ecology and Evolution at the University of Bern. Before joining the Environmental Sciences and Humanities Institute, I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Basel and at the Centre for Compassionate Conservation at the University of Technology Sydney.
My current research focuses on wildlife welfare, research ethics, evidence synthesis, education, and implementation of the 3Rs principles and non-invasive methods in wildlife research (https://3RsWildlife.info).
