Dr. Stefan Blaser is a Researcher at the Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL (Biodiversity and Conservation Biology Department), specializing in fungal ecology and conservation biology. He manages the national SwissFungi data center and leads projects on forest pest modeling, endangered species conservation, and biodiversity monitoring. His work bridges applied research and policy, focusing on fungal diversity in forest/grassland ecosystems and conservation strategies for threatened species like the Pink Waxcap.
Education: PhD (2014, University of Bern) on fungal diversity impacts of land use; MSc (2010, University of Bern) in Ecology and Evolution, focusing on deadwood-inhabiting fungi. Projects include Red List revisions, action plans for protected fungi, and collaborative monitoring programs in Swiss nature reserves.
Research emphasizes conservation biology applications, with articles addressing fungal taxonomy, ecological interactions, and biodiversity management strategies. Active in cross-disciplinary initiatives like AMORE II and Jorat Nature Park monitoring, integrating fungal and entomological data to assess forest reserve effectiveness.
