Professor Adrienne Nicotra

Adrienne is a plant evolutionary ecologist with interest in the capacity of plants to respond to environment and environmental change – particularly plastic responses to warming and drying climate.

Her work focuses on native species from a wide range of environments, though she is particularly interested in mountain flora.

Adrienne joined ANU as a postdoctoral fellow in 1998 and is now a Professor in the Division of Ecology and Evolution in the Research School of Biology. Adrienne is the director of the Australian Mountain Research Facility.
