Amanda Laubmeier joined Texas Tech in 2020. Before that, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and received her Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from North Carolina State University. She works closely with collaborators in the biological sciences, with an emphasis on population ecology. Her expertise is in developing mathematical models and leveraging empirical observations to address application-level concerns. She is particularly interested in insect communities, effective use of ecological data, and incorporating seasonal timescales into mathematical models. She is also involved with scientific communication, outreach, and recruitment.
