Jennie Miller is a Postdoctoral Researcher with the nonprofit organization Panthera and affiliated with at the Cornell Department of Natural Resources and the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Cape Town. Her research focuses on developing science-based conservation tools to assist stakeholders, managers and policymakers in strengthening coexistence between people and carnivores. She received her PhD from the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Sciences in 2015, where she studied spatial patterns and human perceptions of tiger and leopard livestock depredation in central India. She is currently investigating methods for sustainably hunting African lions and studying lion-leopard spatial interactions and implications for big cat conservation.

Research Interests:

human-carnivore coexistence, large carnivores, livestock depredation, conflict mitigation, tiger, leopard, lion, livestock compensation, spatial risk mapping

National Science Foundation (NSF) - The only federal agency whose mission includes support for all fields of fundamental science and engineering, except for medical sciences. We are tasked with keeping the United States at the leading edge of discovery in areas from astronomy to geology to zoology. So, in addition to funding research in the traditional academic areas, the agency also supports "high-risk, high pay-off" ideas, novel collaborations and numerous projects that may seem like science fiction today, but which the public will take for granted tomorrow.

Center for Systems Integration and Sustainability, Michigan State University - A center of excellence that integrates ecology with socioeconomics, demography, and other disciplines for ecological sustainability from local, national, to global scales.

Global Land Project - A joint research project for land systems in the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme and the International Human Dimensions Programme.

About CHANS-Net

Coupled human and natural systems (CHANS) are integrated systems in which humans and natural components interact. CHANS research has recently emerged as an exciting and integrative field of cross-disciplinary scientific inquiry, with research projects covering a variety of coupled systems in locations spanning the globe. Although individual projects have generated many important insights, it is essential to systematically transform the field to be more than the sum of its parts and provide broader insights of greater scientific and societal significance than those resulting from individual projects alone. The goal of CHANS-Net is to foster this transformation by facilitating communication and collaboration among members of the CHANS research community.
