About


Aimee M. Van Tatenhove, Ph.D.

Quantitiative Ecologist


I am a quantitative ecologist with a strong interest in data integration to inform species conservation efforts. I am currently a Rose postdoctoral fellow at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, where I use eBird data to improve avian population trend estimates and enable targeted conservation through innovative quantitative frameworks. My work is highly collaborative; I work under the direction of Dr. Kylee Dunham and closely with members of the eBird Status and Trends team.

Communicating science to the public and investment in up-and-coming scientists is important to me, and both of these values show up in my past and current projects. Check them out here!

Unless noted otherwise, all media on this site, including header photos, are my personal work.
