EMORY NUMBER TWO IN ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY

According to the Chronicle of Higher Education (Jan. 12, 2007), the 2005 Scholarly Productivity Index, by Academic Analytics, ranked Emory number two in the nation in the areas of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. As the nucleus of the Population Biology, Ecology, and Evolution (PBEE) Program is composed of faculty in the Department of Biology, this ranking clearly reflects the quality and the contributions of our PBEE faculty.

The several faculty in the area of PBEE study diverse problems and systems which range from the dynamics of bacterial populations to the ecology and evolution of human diseases.
