Andrea Foulkes
Assistant Professor
Department: Public Health
Research Profile
Research includes developing analytic methods for characterizing the relationships among high-dimensional molecular and cellular data and measures of disease progression. Currently collaborating with investigators across multiple disciplines ranging from oncology to immunology to identify and develop appropriate techniques for analyzing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and disease outcomes for improved environmental health.

Jane Fountain
Professor
Department: Political Science
Research Profile
Research focus includes the intersection of institutions, global information and communication technologies, and governance. Leads the Science, Technology, and Society initiative established to promote multidisciplinary collaboration among the natural, physical and social sciences, engineering and public policy.

James H. Fownes
Research Professor
Department: Natural Resources Conservation
Research Profile
Studies the productivity and sustainability of tree-based ecosystems including factors such as stand age and development, nutrient and water availability, response to disturbance, and optimizing management. Research interests include understanding the controls of carbon balance through stand development in fast-growing plantations, how variation in resources affect regeneration of native species and invasion by alien species in New England forests, and how soil parent material affects soil chemistry and thus plant species distribution and community composition.

Todd K. Fuller
Professor
Department: Natural Resources Conservation
Research Profile
Research focuses on identifying factors affecting variation in mammal density and distribution, natural history and population ecology. Monitoring studies document movements, habitat use, food habits, survival, reproduction, social behavior, and density. Develop survey studies to assess distribution and relative abundance and better understand the roles of disease, genetics, nutrition, morphology, and human activities in population regulation and species conservation.
