Jason R. Rohr, the Ludmilla F., Stephen J., and Robert T. Galla Professor and Chair of the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Notre Dame, has been named a 2025 Fellow of the Ecological Society of America (ESA).
This recognition honors his outstanding contributions to ecological science, particularly at the intersection of ecology and public health. Rohr is one of just eight Fellows confirmed this year.
“Being selected as a Fellow of the Ecological Society of America is such a prestigious distinction and I am so honored to be part of this select group of talented and accomplished ecologists,” Rohr said.
Rohr’s research focuses on how environmental changes—such as climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss—impact wildlife populations, species interactions, and the spread of diseases affecting both humans and animals. His interdisciplinary approach combines fieldwork, laboratory experiments, and modeling to address complex ecological and public health challenges.
