Corresponding Editor: Anne Bronikowski Loeske Kruuk is a professor in the Research School of Biology at the Australian National University. She did a PhD in population genetics at the University of Edinburgh, followed by a postdoc at the University of Cambridge, and then held a Royal Society University Research Fellowship at the University of Edinburgh and an Australian Research Council Future Fellowship at the Australian National University. Her research focuses on evolutionary ecology and quantitative genetics of natural populations, with the aim of understanding how both evolutionary processes and environmental conditions shape diversity in natural populations. She has worked on a range of species, largely but not entirely using long-term studies of wild vertebrate populations with individual-level field data.
