Jorge Isla

Postdoctoral researcher (Juan de la Cierva)

I am a postdoctoral researcher broadly interested in plant-animal interactions and their role in shaping ecological processes across natural and human-modified ecosystems. My research particularly focuses on the interactions that operate during the reproductive cycle of plants, including pollination, seed dispersal, seed predation, and plant-plant facilitation. I am especially interested in addressing questions that simultaneously advance fundamental ecological knowledge and contribute to the conservation and management of contemporary landscapes and ecosystems. To address these questions, I integrate multiple approaches, with a strong empirical component, to understand the role of plant-animal interactions across different ecological contexts.
