Anna Hargreaves
Regular biography
Anna Hargreaves is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biology at McGill University. Her research focuses on Conservation, Ecology, Evolution and Behaviour, with an emphasis on the evolutionary ecology of species distributions and species interactions. Her work addresses theoretical and conservation topics, including local adaptation, dispersal evolution at range edges, and geographic patterns in biotic interactions such as pollination, herbivory, and competition. Her research combines field experiments, data synthesis, simulation models, and lab or greenhouse experiments.
Scholar-generated biography
Anna Hargreaves is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biology at McGill University, Canada. Her research focuses on evolutionary ecology, particularly the factors influencing species’ range limits, species interactions, and plant adaptations. Her work explores how environmental gradients, such as elevation and latitude, shape ecological and evolutionary dynamics. Through experimental and observational studies, she investigates the impacts of global warming on species distributions, the role of biotic interactions in range edge dynamics, and the evolutionary consequences of human-induced habitat fragmentation. Her research also examines plant-pollinator interactions, seed predation patterns, and the ecological significance of floral syndromes.
