Jason R. Rohr

Jason R. Rohr is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Integrative Biology at the University of South Florida. His research focuses on ecotoxicology, conservation biology, and disease ecology, particularly investigating how anthropogenic stressors like pollution and climate change impact wildlife populations and disease dynamics. He uses interdisciplinary approaches combining lab experiments, field studies, and mathematical modeling to address environmental challenges.

Key research interests include amphibian conservation, the ecological effects of agrochemicals, and the interplay between environmental changes and infectious diseases such as schistosomiasis. His work emphasizes understanding complex interactions between biotic and abiotic factors to develop sustainable solutions for human and wildlife coexistence.

Rohr leads the Rohr Ecology Lab, which integrates laboratory and field studies to explore ecological and epidemiological processes. His research has been published in high-impact journals like Nature Communications and Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B, focusing on topics ranging from amphibian habitat management to the effects of nutrient enrichment on disease transmission.
