DrRos Gloag

Ros' research focuses on understanding the evolutionary processes that generate and maintain biodiversity. She addresses fundamental questions in ecology and evolution by studying natural populations of wild bees in Australia. At the same time, she aims to advance the conservation of these important insects and promote their sustainable use as pollinators of crops. Ros completed her PhD in Zoology at the University of Oxford in 2013, followed by a University of Sydney Postdoctoral Fellowship (2014-2018) and Lectureship in Evolutionary Biology at the School of Life and Environmental Sciences (2018-2022). In 2022 she began as an ARC DECRA Fellow researching the genetics and ecology of native Australian stingless bees and in 2023 she was awarded a University of Sydney Robinson Fellowship.
