Welcome to the DeWreede lab!

Our research is primarily concerned with the ecology of marine intertidal environments, and we use observational and manipulative field experiments as well as modeling  to understand the biology of species, populations, and communities of seaweeds and marine invertebrates.

We are based out of the Botany Department at the University of British Columbia, and the UBC Centre for Biodiversity Research. Most of our research is undertaken through the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre.
