Bio:
Bruce Kendall (PhD University of Arizona, 1996) is an associate professor at the Bren School of Environmental Science and Management, where he has been located since 1998. He is a quantitative ecologist with a focus on animal and plant population dynamics.
He received his BA in physics, with an environmental studies minor, from Williams College(Massachusetts) in 1986, and a PhD in ecology and evolutionary biology from the University of Arizona in 1996. His dissertation work focussed on chaos theory, spatial population models, and models of small populations. From 1996 through 1998, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (UC Santa Barbara), where he studied the causes of population cycles.
The highlights of his years between college and grad school include bicycling across the country, working at the environmental education center for the San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, spending a year as an agricultural intern at the Land Institute in Kansas, and working at a commercial trout hatchery in Massachusetts.
