Hidetoshi Inamine

Hello all, my name is Hide and I'm a first year graduate student studying Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell. I did my undergraduate study at the University of Chicago, but am originally from Okinawa, Japan.

On the broadest level, I am interested in theoretical biology. On a narrower level, I am interested in feedback loop between ecological and evolutionary processes (eco-evolutionary dynamics), especially in host-pathogen system where the evolutionary timescale of the pathogen is comparable to its ecological timescale. More specifically, I would like to investigate (in silico) how different population structures influence evolutionary trajectories of the pathogens.

I am currently in the process of transforming my interests into a viable project. Fingers crossed.

I enjoy any and every academic activity, and am really looking forward to the interdisciplinary experience that the program has to offer.
