Dr. Jessica Hellmann is Associate Professor at the University of Notre Dame in the Department of Biological Sciences. Her research examines how climate change and other environmental stressors affect species and ecosystems and how how these changes affect people in turn. Her research group currently investigates species' responses to climate change, impacts on endangered and imperiled animals, human adaptation to regional and global climate, and strategies that governments and corporations can use to adjust to changing climate. She is a founding member of the Collaboratory for Adaptation to Climate Change. She also leads the climate change adaptation group of the Environmental Change Initiative, manages an interdisciplinary graduate training program on environment and society called GLOBES, and directs research for the Global Adaptation Index, all at Notre Dame.

Jason Dzurisin is a Research Program Manager at the University of Notre Dame in the Department of Biological Sciences. He examines the vulnerability of natural systems to global change and works to develop knowledge, tools and strategies to aid conservation efforts. Previously, he investigated the response of a number of species to simulated climate shifts at genetic, organismal, and population-level scales. He currently manages the research program, content generation, and community development/outreach for the Collaboratory for Adaptation to Climate Change.
