Disability in ecology and evolution
July 17, 2025
Anne Charmantier, Jennifer Lavers, Skye Austin
In this TrendsTalk series ‘Disability in ecology and evolution’, we hear from people about their experiences being disabled in ecology and evolution. We are asking ecologists and evolutionary biologists with disabilities what the community could do to make our field more inclusive – these changes can be very practical things (e.g., large fonts), they could be institutional, or involve people’s attitudes and beliefs.
