Andrew Burchill, Ph.D.

Andrew Burchill earned his doctorate in Complex Adaptive Systems Science and Collective Animal Behavior and is ready to RUUUMMMMMBBBLE! (and find a job)

My Jam:

I love finding shit out; it's my favorite part of being a scientist. Like a dragon hoarding gold, I slowly gather statistical methods and techniques from different fields, collecting them for future analyses. My research has historically focused on the collective, decentralized behavior of social insect colonies, but I have wide-ranging interests and expertise. More?

My past projects include taking 30 years worth of breeding bird surveys to forecast community responses to climate change, designing from-scratch Bayesian mixture models to learn about ancient potters in the archaeological record, and using wavelet-based time series analyses to see whether ant-mimicking spiders can keep pace in crazy interspcies dance-offs.
