Exploring the mechanistic links between the movements of individual animals and the dynamics of populations, with particular emphasis on migratory species.
Our research leverages emerging biologging technologies to generate insights about how individual animals interact with their environment, how these interactions affect life history, and how these processes scale up to produce emergent ecological phenomena - especially identifying those factors that regulate population growth dynamics.

As of 2025, the Yanco Lab is part of the Smithsonian's National Zoo & Conservation Biology Institute, Migratory Bird Center.
