Russell S. Lande
Conservation Biologist | Class of 1997
Title
Conservation Biologist
Location
Eugene, Oregon
Area of Focus
Ecology and Evolutionary/Environmental Biology
Published July 1, 1997
ABOUT RUSSELL'S WORK
Russell Lande is a biologist whose studies in quantitative genetics have had a significant impact on many aspects of evolutionary biology, both conceptual and empirical.
Lande's research has advanced our understanding of sexual selection, the effects of selection and mutation on heritable variation, extinction processes at both the gradual and punctuated levels, and the deleterious effects of inbreeding for both plants and animals. He has provided necessary analytical tools for understanding ecological processes and has applied his expertise to issues of conservation biology and tropical ecology. Lande is interested in questions centered on why there are so many species in the tropics and how we can preserve this biodiversity. His work in conservation biology shows us that current human practices could lead to the extinction of large fractions of the earth's biodiversity and provides model insights into the probable consequences of such extinction.
BIOGRAPHY
Lande is a professor of biology at the University of California, San Diego. He was previously affiliated with the University of Oregon as a professor and the University of Chicago as the Louis Block Professor. He is the co-author of Stochastic Population Dynamics in Ecology and Conservation (2003).
Lande received aB.S. (1972) from the University of California, Irvine, and a Ph.D. (1976) from Harvard University.

关于Russell的工作
罗素-兰德是一位生物学家,他的定量遗传学研究对进化生物学的许多方面产生了重大影响,包括概念上和经验上。
兰德的研究促进了我们对性选择、选择和突变对遗传变异的影响、渐变和点状的灭绝过程以及近亲繁殖对动植物的有害影响的理解。 他为理解生态过程提供了必要的分析工具,并将其专业知识应用于保护生物学和热带生态学的问题。 兰德对以热带地区为什么有这么多物种以及我们如何保护这种生物多样性为中心的问题感兴趣。 他在保护生物学方面的工作告诉我们,目前人类的做法可能导致地球上大部分生物多样性的灭绝,并对这种灭绝的可能后果提供了模型见解。
个人简历
兰德是加州大学圣地亚哥分校的生物学教授。 他曾在俄勒冈大学担任教授,在芝加哥大学担任路易斯-布洛克教授。 他是《生态学和保护学中的随机人口动力学》(2003年)的共同作者。
兰德在加利福尼亚大学欧文分校获得学士学位(1972年),并在哈佛大学获得博士学位(1976年)。
