The research of the Ecoinformatics & Biodiversity section is focused on two broadly overlapping lines of research:
Ecoinformatics: Informatics-based research on ecology and environmental science.
Biodiversity studies: Spanning and integrating ecoinformatics, molecular phylogenetics, systematics and taxonomy, classical ecology, and conservation biology and ethno-ecology to further our understanding of species diversity, its determinants, and the ecosystem services it provides to society.
