Dr. Jochen Drescher is a researcher at the J.F. Blumenbach Institute of Zoology and Anthropology (University of Göttingen). His work focuses on arthropod biodiversity changes along tropical agricultural transformation gradients in Sumatra, Indonesia, particularly in smallholder rubber and oil palm plantations. Collaborating with institutions like Bogor Agricultural University and the University of Jambi, he employs morphology-based taxonomy, community phylogenetics, and stable isotope analysis to study arthropod community shifts.

His recent publications (2022-2025) highlight impacts of rainforest conversion on ants, beetles, spiders, and parasitoid wasps, with field guides and taxonomic contributions to Sumatran arthropods.
Notable collaborations include work on energy flux reallocation in transformed rainforests and LiDAR-based canopy structure analysis. He has co-authored over 20 peer-reviewed articles and contributed to field guides on ants, beetles, and butterflies.
