Biography

Mikkel Skovrind is a PhD Student at the GLOBE Institute, University of Copenhagen, focusing on Arctic whales, particularly belugas. His research investigates evolutionary demographic histories within a broad contextual framework. His academic career has been marked by extensive experience in generating and analyzing genomic data from both ancient and modern samples. Mikkel employs a multifaceted approach that integrates genomic analyses with various data types, including telemetrics and stable isotopes, to enhance habitat modeling and ecological understanding. He believes that incorporating non-genetic environmental components and ecological phenotype data significantly amplifies the impact of genomic findings, thereby allowing for a richer perspective on their implications.
