Nicklas Jansson is an Adjunct Associate Professor at Linköping University specializing in the study of insects, particularly focusing on the conservation of beetles. His research primarily revolves around old trees and the conservation of oak-living beetles. He has explored various aspects of preserving the beetle fauna associated with ancient oak trees. For example, he has developed and tested artificial oak-wood nest boxes that support local insect diversity and provide essential 'stepping-stones' for isolated areas. The beetle fauna in old oak trees is notably diverse, containing several rare and threatened species. As research shows that oak habitats have decreased significantly in Sweden and Europe, understanding the diversity within these habitats is crucial for effective protection. Jansson has a long-standing collaboration with researchers in Turkey, contributing to the management of a pan-European oak beetle project. Furthermore, he is a member of the Red List committees for beetles in Sweden and for saproxylic beetles across Europe.
