Summary
Dan Warren is a population biologist and quantitative modeller with 12 years of research experience applying species distribution and biodiversity models to questions in ecology, evolution, and conservation. Currently a Senior Research Fellow at the Gulbali Institute, he has led environmental science teams at OIST and held senior research positions across Australia, Germany, and the US, translating theory into practical conservation decision-support. Dan develops analytical methods—several now standard in the field—and builds R-based tools and simulation-driven workshops to teach statistical thinking to researchers and managers. He also consults widely, leveraging deep R expertise to deliver applied analyses for reserve design and biodiversity policy. Based in Albury, NSW, he maintains an active publication record (see Google Scholar) and combines theoretical curiosity about the origins of biodiversity with a pragmatic drive to produce reusable quantitative tools.
