Personal profile
Dr James Turner is an ecophysiologist fascinated by the physiological, ecological and behavioural responses of small mammals to different environmental constraints. He has used a range of non-model systems to investigate broad ecological patterns and their underlying physiological mechanisms using field- and laboratory-based techniques. He received his PhD in 2010 from the University of New England after examining pygmy-possum thermoregulatory biology and torpor use. He then worked for two years as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Winnipeg, Canada, where he studied the hibernation patterns, behaviour and pathophysiology of microbats affected by the fungal disease white-nose syndrome. From 2012-2017 he worked as an Alexander von Humboldt Foundation postdoctoral fellow and a research associate at the University of Hamburg, Germany, on projects related to the energetic and spatial ecology of Eurasian red squirrels and European hedgehogs.
Research Interests
- Wildlife functional ecology, comparative physiology and conservation
- Torpor, thermal biology and energetic ecology
- Spatial ecology, behaviour and habitat use
- Urbanisation, climate change and environmental influence on small mammal biology
