Dr. Jeremy T. Bruskotter as an associate professor in the School of Environment & Natural Resources at The Ohio State University, and a member of the Terrestrial Wildlife Ecology Laboratory—a partnership between OSU and the Ohio Division of Wildlife. His research is centered on understanding how people make conservation-related judgments and decisions, and the intersection of such judgments with conservation policy.  Current research is largely focused in two areas: (i) understanding judgments and decisions related to large, terrestrial carnivores, and how these factors impact carnivore conservation and management; and (ii) quantifying changes in values and attitudes about wildlife, and uncovering factors that impact value and attitude change.  Dr. Bruskotter holds a PhD in Natural Resources Science and Management from the University of Minnesota and a Masters in the Human Dimensions of Ecosystem Management from Utah State University.
