 Dr.
Zoë Lindo
I
am a community ecologist and taxonomic expert in the field of acarology,
specializing in the suborder Oribatida. It is my goal to shed light
on the amazing diversity of soil organisms and their contributions to
greater ecological processes.
I
finished my PhD in 2008. I subsequently spent two years as a postdoctoral
fellow with Dr. Andrew Gonzalez at McGill University in Montreal investigating
the effect of anthropogenic change on moss-microarthropod food webs.
