Gregory Dwyer is a Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Chicago. His research focuses on climate change, eco-evolutionary dynamics, host-pathogen interactions, mathematical ecology, quantitative ecology, and statistical computing. He conducts lab studies on ecology and the evolution of pathogens, aiming to answer major questions regarding host variation and its effects on pathogen epidemics and evolution. By constructing mathematical models of host-pathogen dynamics and testing these models with a combination of experiments and observations, Dwyer's work provides valuable insights into the ecology and dynamics of diseases in nature. His research has included the study of insect pathogens and their role in preventing forest destruction, as well as the impact of climate change on insect outbreaks. Dwyer has published extensively, contributing to the understanding of population dynamics in various ecological systems, including his work on the effects of genetic drift and pathogen variation in hosts.
