Sean Prager

Associate Professor and Entomologist, University of Saskatchewan
My research interests are in the broad topic of insect ecology. Within that context, I conduct both fundamental and applied research on a variety of arthropod taxa. My primary fundamental interests are in the ecology and evolution of adaptive traits. I am particularly curious about traits that are associated with choices. This research has examined topics such as social polymorphisms, oviposition behaviors, mate choice, and host choice of parasitioids and herbivores. My applied research generally focuses on ecologically sustainable and sound methods of managing insect pests, especially disease vectors. In that context, I often focus on implications for Integrated Pest Management. Ideally, I strive to combine my two lines of inquiry and apply knowledge of ecological traits to develop management strategies.

Sergi Pardos-Prado

I work on two main lines of research. The first deals with political behaviour and comparative politics questions in Europe, and the second deals with the impact of migration processes on public attitudes and political outcomes. More specifically, I have devoted some time now to analyse how the immigration issue is incorporated into patterns of political competition and affects electoral outcomes, both in countries with and without a prominent anti-immigrant party in Parliament.

Regarding my political behaviour and comparative politics line of research, I am working on a number of projects assessing the conditional effect of institutions, media discourse and party system characteristics on different forms of voting, including proximity, directional, and valence voting. I am also studying the interaction between power-sharing institutions and traditional individual-level predictors of electoral turnout. Finally, I am also interested in the formation of subjective perceptions of the national economy, and the moderating effect of personal socioeconomic circumstances and party messages in this process.

As for my research on immigration, I mostly analyse patterns of xenophobia and racism from a comparative perspective in Europe. More specifically, I deal with the direct or indirect impact of several predictors on attitudes towards immigration, namely personality traits, local and national levels of ethnic diversity, and ideological predispositions. More recently I have also implemented longitudinal analyses of xenophobia over individual life cycles using panel data, and survey experiments assessing the impact of different forms of ethnic diversity on the willingness to redistribute resources in a given community.

Sergio Rossi

Professor, Département des Sciences Fondamentales, Université du Québec à Chicoutimi (UQAC)
My research focuses on quantitative ecology and ecophysiology, and in particular on modelling the complex responses of plants to multiple environmental factors and predicting the phenological adaptation of trees to climate changes. Investigations include long-lasting observations in permanent plots across wide geographical ranges, manipulated experiments in nature, assisted migration of ecotypes, and experimental designs under strictly-controlled environments. My actual projects are related to the dynamics of tree growth and reproduction at local to global scale and how the effects of climate change on forest productivity can be taken into account by the new strategies of forest management. I am considered a pioneer of the studies on wood formation in temperate and cold ecosystems and treeline ecotones. I have successfully realized several meta-analyses on the recurrent timings of tree growth across the Northern hemisphere.
Mes recherches portent sur l'écologie quantitative et l'écophysiologie, et en particulier sur la modélisation des réponses des plantes aux facteurs environnementaux et sur la prédiction de l'adaptation des arbres aux changements climatiques. J’utilise des outils scientifiques qui impliquent les observations de longue durée récoltées dans des parcelles permanentes sur de vastes régions géographiques, les expériences de manipulation en nature, la migration assistée d'écotypes et les designs expérimentaux dans des milieux contrôlés. Mes projets actuels portent sur la dynamique de croissance et de reproduction des arbres à échelles spatiales variées, de celle locale à celle globale, et sur la prise en compte des effets du changement climatique sur la productivité forestière par les nouvelles stratégies d’aménagement. Je suis considéré comme l’un des pionniers des études sur la formation du bois dans les écosystèmes tempérés et froids et d’écotones de la limite de la forêt. J'ai réalisé plusieurs méta-analyses sur le calendrier intra-annuel de croissance des arbres à travers l'hémisphère boreal.

Antes de ello estaba en Madrid, dando clases en la UCJC y CEDEU/URJC, y dirigiendo el área de investigación y discurso de la Oficina de Asuntos Públicos de la comunidad bahá'í de España. He vivido muchos años en Latinoamérica, donde puede hacerme consciente de la necesidad del conocimiento, de la educación y de nuevas estructuras de aprendizaje que se dediquen al empoderamiento de las masas, a fin de crear una sociedad global más justa, sostenible y pacífica. Dentro de este contexto, me parecen especialmente relevantes las dinámicas de la gobernanza, el desarrollo y la seguridad, tres áreas a las que he prestado particular atención en los últimos años. En mi web (sergarcia.es) puedes conocer más de mí, ver mis libros y artículos académicos, así como mi labor con el Instituto para el Conocimiento, la Gobernanza y el Desarrollo globales (ICGD).
