Claire is the Research Manager for Naturehood, a citizen science project that engages communities in providing wildlife resources in their private green space and monitoring the effect on wildlife.
The project aims to provide a vehicle for communities to come together and in doing so, affect landscape level change for wildlife. Claire obtained a BSc in Combined Honours Science: Psychology and Zoology from the University of Liverpool, examining associative learning in the garden snail for her third year dissertation; a MSc in Evolutionary and Behavioural Ecology from the University of Exeter, with a dissertation looking at genetic variation in the condition dependence of female preference; a PhD in Biology from University of California, Los Angeles where she studied the role of multi-level selection in the conflict between workers and queens over male parentage; and a PostDoc at University College London elucidating the use of biological concepts in the urban planning literature.
She has worked in a variety of organisations from start-ups to housing associations, led groups of young people on expeditions in the Indian Himalayas and California’s James San Jacinto Mountains Reserve, and volunteers with wildlife organisations including the British Trust for Ornithology.
She is passionate about fostering diversity in science and is a member of two COST actions on citizen science.
