Spring 2026 Biology Seminar Series Speaker – Morgan Ruelle, Clark University 

Dr. Ruelle is interested in how biological and cultural diversity enable communities to anticipate and adapt to change. His work focused on how the diversity within food systems provides options for communities to respond to climate change. He integrates Indigenous and other place-based ecological knowledge with a broad array of scientific tools. He strives to include communities in every stage of the research cycle to co-generate knowledge that is locally relevant and broadly meaningful.
