Alice Bernard (she/her), PhD

PhD, Postdoctoral Research Fellow

About

My research interests lie in understanding the complex interactions between humans and wildlife to address conservation issues and inform decision making. In my previous work, I mainly focused on how wildlife uses human-modified landscapes and the consequences for wildlife populations. During my PhD, I examined the spatiotemporal use of multifunctional landscapes by African mammals, combining camera trap data with local ecological knowledge. My previous postdoctoral position focused on assessing the impact of offshore wind farms on seabird populations in the Atlantic Ocean. My current work investigates how the intactness of mammal communities and the decline of mammal abundance impact human health in low- to middle-income countries.
