个人简介
Dr. Letourneau is full professor in Environmental Studies at the University of California, Santa Cruz, with research interests in plant-insect interactions, biodiversity, and environmental risk in the context of decision-making in managed systems. Over the past 25 years her research in the western USA, Borneo, Costa Rica, as a Fulbright Fellow in Mexico, Malawi and Colombia, and as a Christensen Research Fellow in Papua New Guinea has emphasized arthropod predators, herbivores and plants in the ecology and conservation of natural forests, biological control in farmer’s fields, and risk assessment for novel crop traits. She has written over 80 research articles and book chapters and co-edited 3 books on topics that include vegetation management for biological control of insect pests, food webs in organic versus conventional crop fields, trophic cascades in forest habitats, and environmental risks of genetically modified crops. She is a past Chair of the Agroecology Section of the Ecological Society of America, member of the National Research Council’s Committee on environmental impacts of genetically modified plants, and editor for the international journal Environmental Biosafety Research. As an Assistant Professor, she was featured in Discover Magazine’s 1991 issue on women in science. She spent sabbatical leave during 2009 as a Fulbright Teaching and Research Fellow at the Universidad del Valle, Cali, Colombia offering a course on Biodiversity and Agriculture with Drs. Inge Armbrecht and James Montoya Lerma.
