My research focuses on data-intensive questions in ecology, using large ecological datasets, advanced statistical/machine learning methods, and theoretical modeling to understand ecological patterns. I am a Moore Investigator in Data-Driven Discovery. Am active on Twitter. Blog about ecology and open science. And serve on the Data Carpentry. Boards of directors, the Software Carpentry. Advisory board, and the editorial boards of PLOS One and PeerJ. Checkout my Impactstory. Ellen joined the lab in fall of...

We believe that open science includes being open about the work that we're doing in addition to the work we have already done. As part of this effort we are starting to share the proposals that fund our research and our reports on our progress. Moore Foundation Data Driven Discovery Investigators Competition. Annual Report 2010 - 2011. Annual Report 2011 - 2012. NSF Research Starter Grant. NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biological Informatics. A strong test of the Maximum Entropy Theory of Ecology.

To help improve ecologists ability to quickly access and analyze data we are developing a computer program called the EcoData Retriever. That designs database structures for ecological datasets and then downloads the data, pre-processes it, and installs it into major database management systems. Find out more. An R wrapper for the EcoData Retriever developed as part of the rOpenSci. Project. On GitHub. Rpartitions: Code for integer partitioning. Fitting power-law distributions to data.
