FEDERICA VILLA
Research Assistant, Sapienza University of Rome
Federica is a research assistant at Sapienza University and she will support the teaching of Global Change Biology course. She has a MSc in Ecobiology and the aim of her MSc project was to investigate the relationship between physiological stress and macroparasite infections in Eurasian red squirrel. She is also enrolled in a one-year Master in scientific communication at Sapienza University.
GIORDANO MANCINI
PhD student, Sapienza University of Rome
Giordano is a Ph.D. student funded by the italian National Operational Program (PON) for research and innovation. He is working on climate change exposure measurement to support IUCN Red List climate change assessment, in collaboration with the sRedList working group. He is also interested in the effect of global change on human-biodiversity coexistence.
CHIARA DRAGONETTI
PhD student, Sapienza University of Rome
Chiara is a PhD student, and former MSc student, in the lab working on the impacts of global change on mountain biodiversity from a local to global scale. She completed a MSc where she studied the change of the niche breadht of mountain's mammals under future climatic conditions, and an internship where she investigated to role of corridors for local movements of mountain mammals.

ANDREA TONELLI
MSc student, Sapienza University of Rome
Andrea is a student pursuing a master's degree in Ecobiology. The aim of his MSc project is to assess the zoonotic hazard posed by mammalian viruses at global scale, understanding the distribution patterns of viral diversity in the host species.
ANDREA SACCHI
MSc student, Sapienza University of Rome
Andrea is a MSc student, the aim of his MSc project is to assess the impact of extreme climate events on Nature's Contributions to People (NCPs) and on species extinction risk under different climatic scenarios.
HERNÁN CÁCERES-ESCOBAR
Post-doc, Sapienza University of Rome
Hernán is a veterinarian and conservation scientist, his postdoc aims to explore how anthropogenic-driven environmental change affects disease hazards to create future scenarios of risk under a One Health perspective.

PAST MEMBERS
ETIENNE HENRY
Etienne was a MSc student in the sRedList project based in iDiv Germany, where he developed and tested new models of extinction risk prediction based on Red List criteria.
PABLO M. LUCAS
Pablo was a postdoc on a project funded by the Global Wildlife Conservation, in collaboration with the sRedList working group, where he developed and tested new automatic approaches to assess the conservation status of species.
MARIA LUMBIERRES CIVIT
Maria did a PhD student at Sapienza University of Rome (Italy), part of the European Training Network Inspire4Nature. The aim of her project was to identify new Key Biodiversity Areas using spatial prioritisation techniques.
THOMAS MERRIEN
Thomas did a MSc under the supervision of Rob Salguero-Gómez, Katrina Davis at Oxford University and Moreno Di Marco at Sapienza University. The aim of his project was to evaluate the impact of human settlements on the demographic signature and performance of plant and animal species, compared to their dynamics in pristine habitats, worldwide.
