Michaela Medzihorská
PhD student at FISC specializing in population genetics
Climate change accelerates biological invasions by promoting habitat disturbances and facilitating hybridization between previously isolated species, thereby driving rapid adaptation. Modern genomic and simulation models in population genetics offer powerful tools to track, predict, and manage these invasive dynamics, providing critical insights to control invasions and safeguard biodiversity in a rapidly changing world.

Specialization

Forestry, population genetics, simulations and biological invasions.
