Kendall Calhoun


Kendall Calhoun, Postdoctoral Researcher
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at UC Davis (Department of Wildlife, Fish, and Conservation Biology) and UCLA (Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology). My research examines how ecological disturbances influence wildlife community assemblages and resilience. Building ecosystem resilience is an essential conservation strategy amidst ongoing global change. My work also seeks to understand the potential consequences of climate change and disturbances in altering dynamics of human-wildlife conflict. I aim for my work to inform future research and management decisions to create more resilient ecosystems into the future.
I'm excited to share that I'll be starting a new position as an Assistant Professor at the University of British Columbia in the department of Zoology starting Fall 2026! Stay tuned for some exciting new updates!
