Nina Santostasi

Research Fellow

About myself

I obtained my Ph.D. at Sapienza University of Rome (Italy) in joint supervision with the University of Montpellier (France) on modeling population dynamics in presence of hybridization with a focus on the hybridization between grey wolves and dogs.

About my research

I am a quantitative ecologist and conservation biologist working on animal population dynamics, demographic modeling, and biodiversity conservation under global change. My research combines demographic and ecological models, including capture-recapture, individual-based, and species distribution models, to investigate how environmental change affects terrestrial and marine vertebrates across spatial scales, from local populations to global biodiversity patterns.

I have conducted research at Sapienza University of Rome, the CNRS Centre d’Écologie Fonctionnelle et Évolutive (France), and Texas A&M University at Galveston. My work focuses on evidence-based conservation planning, mammal conservation, and forecasting species responses to climate and land-use change.
