Conor Crowley

Bio

Conor is an undergraduate research fellow at emLab, where he works with Dr. Evan Patrick, Professor Ashley Larsen, and Patrick Roehrdanz on developing a spatial conservation-planning framework that links habitat area and connectivity to modeled population persistence. His work has focused on building reproducible geospatial workflows and applying the framework to biodiversity conservation in Madagascar. Previously, he worked in UCSB’s Mazer Lab, where he used statistical methods to study heritability and evolutionary change in native California plants. He earned a B.S. in Statistics and Data Science from UC Santa Barbara and will begin an M.Sc. in GIS and Remote Sensing at Lund University. Outside of work, Conor enjoys cooking and hiking.
