The Spring 2026 Biology Seminar Series continues with a talk from Rachel Chock, "Science-based conservation and management of endangered small mammals in southern California."
Location:
BioScience 113
Event Date: Mar. 24, 2026
Habitat loss and fragmentation are leading causes of global biodiversity loss, and we unfortunately have a front row view to these processes here in southern California. My research focus is on addressing critical knowledge gaps for endangered pocket mice and kangaroo rats and applying our findings to improve conservation and management for these species. I will discuss a variety of approaches, including behavioral ecology, habitat suitability, and population modeling, as well as partnerships that transform research into conservation applications.
