Meredith Holgerson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University, specializing in freshwater ecology. She received her Ph.D. from Yale University in 2016 and has a strong background in biogeochemistry and ecosystem science. Her research focuses on the dynamics of freshwater ponds and lakes, particularly how they respond to environmental changes such as land use and the introduction of non-native species. Holgerson's work employs field studies and whole-ecosystem experiments to investigate questions around food web dynamics, greenhouse gas emissions, and community composition within these aquatic ecosystems. Through her lab's research, she seeks to understand the intricate relationships between organisms and ecosystem processes, aiming to contribute to conservation efforts and sustainable management of freshwater habitats.
