Charlotte Bunnenberg

Profile

Hello World! My name is Charlotte Bunnenberg, and I am a researcher specializing in eco-evolutionary modelling.
My journey began with a passion for the intersection of computer science and biology, leading me to pursue a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Biology at the University of Osnabrück, Germany. I further honed my expertise by earning a master’s degree in Informatics for the Natural Sciences at Bielefeld University.

Currently, I am a PhD student in Greta Bocedi’s Research Group at the University of Aberdeen, contributing to the international project "The missing link: unraveling the role of genetic variation of beneficial arthropods in agro-ecosystems", funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation.
My research focuses on the impact of dynamic landscape processes on genetic diversity. I am particularly interested in applying mathematical and computational frameworks, such as graph theory, to improve landscape connectivity analysis and enhance our understanding of biodiversity conservation.
