Tyler Kelly

I am a passionate wildlife ecologist, living in Vancouver BC. I have spent most of my career studying the interactions between pollinators and plants. Since 2020, I have worked as the laboratory manager for Dr. Claire Kremen at the Biodiversity Research Centre at the University of British Columbia. In this role, I have helped many graduate students design and implement research studies focused on the conservation of wildlife in agroecosystems. We work to understand how agriculture impacts the movement, biodiversity, and abundance of animals in these landscapes and the ways in which we can better support their populations. Finally, for the past few years I have been developing a native bee board game to promote pollinator conservation and educate people about the diversity of native bees.
