Vermont About Us
Dr. Mark Henderson is the Unit Leader, and Therese Donovan is the Assistant Unit Leader, while Theresa DeBarge provides administrative support for Unit activities.
Dr. Henderson and Dr. Donovan holds research faculty rank at the University of Vermont, teaches graduate level courses, and oversees the Unit's research projects. Research projects typically support graduate students and post-docs and address a variety of topics, ranging from understanding the ecology of moose in Vermont and monitoring wildlife with remote devices to predicting the impacts of landuse change on Vermont's biodiversity. Research funds for the Vermont Unit come mainly from VTFWD, USFWS, USEPA, USDA, U.S. Forest Service (USFS), and National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS).
The Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources at the University of Vermont is the home of the Vermont Unit. Unit offices are located in the Aiken Center, next door to the Davis Student Center.
