About:
Dr. Roi Hendler is an ecologist and data scientist dedicated to biodiversity conservation and habitat restoration. His research focuses on ecological modeling, movement ecology, and the role of grazing animals in restoring grassland ecosystems. As a doctoral researcher at Hochschule Anhalt, he integrates advanced data science techniques—including machine learning, geospatial analysis, and statistical modeling—to understand ecosystem dynamics and promote nature-based solutions for biodiversity recovery.
With a background in ecology, environmental data science, and physiological psychology, Roi has conducted fieldwork in Namibia and urban ecological surveys in Berlin, gaining firsthand experience in species interactions, ecosystem resilience, and conservation strategies. He also teaches R programming for ecological modeling, equipping future scientists with the tools to analyze biodiversity data effectively.
His research explores how grazing patterns influence vegetation structure and biodiversity, offering insights that support sustainable land management, rewilding efforts, and climate adaptation strategies. By leveraging big data and ecological modeling, Roi aims to develop innovative solutions that restore degraded landscapes, enhance ecosystem services, and protect global biodiversity. He is passionate about collaborating with conservation organizations, policymakers, and fellow researchers to bridge the gap between ecological science and actionable conservation strategies.
