Insect Ecology Lab @ UNE

 Professor Nigel Andrew

 

Nigel is an insect ecologist based in Zoology at the University of New England in Armidale, NSW. He spends much of his time studying how insect biology changes along environmental gradients (latitude, altitude, climatic, agricultural): particularly their ecology, physiology and behaviour. His current research focuses on the impact of climate change on dung beetles, ants and insect-plant interactions. Nigel teaches Entomology and Insect –Plant Interactions at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels and leads a dynamic lab that includes researchers working on interlinked topics insect ecology, physiology and behaviour.
