Ecology Center Seminar with Dr. Paul Koch
Conference/Seminar
Dr. Koch will be presenting two seminars. Please note that the Wednesday seminar will take place at 12:30 PM in ENGR 101, while the Thursday seminar will remain in BNR 102 at 4 PM. Wednesday, 4/15: "Body building in extant and extinct mammals – the role of the gut microbiome in protein metabolism." Thursday, 4/16: "What fossils tell us about the planet today – using the past to plan for the future." About Dr. Koch: I am a paleobiologist who explores questions about extinction and evolution in vertebrates, often using forensic chemistry to assess the ecology and physiology of individual organisms, extant or extinct. Earlier in my career, I focused on the extinction of megafauna at the end of the last ice age and the pulse of evolutionary and ecological change triggered by early Cenozoic global warming. Of late, I’ve focused on gleaning information useful for conservation from fossils of extant species and the extinct megafauna they interacted with them. This work also includes study of the role of the gut microbiome in animal nutrition.
