Future of CPB
Population biology as an interdisciplinary science is still in its
infancy. As society's need to understand the processes that govern
biodiversity expands, the role of the Center for Population Biology
will also grow.
Since its establishment, the Center for Population Biology has enjoyed
an extraordinary period of productivity and success, driven by the
enthusiastic input from our faculty, the professional success of our
students and postdoctoral fellows, and financial support from the
UC Davis campus and beyond.
The scientific prospects for the future are even brighter. In the
years ahead, the major programmatic challenge for the CPB will be
to expand the breadth of its interdisciplinary goals, while securing
permanent funds to continue to attract and train the next generation
of scientific leaders. In so doing, the CPB can continue to cultivate
the most innovative research in population biology, and produce the
leaders of the next generation of population biologists.
