Dongmin (Dennis) Kim

I am a quantitative ecologist with a background in statistics and a founder/data curator of Move Disease Archive. I am interested in applying statistical and mathematical models to problems in ecology. My research interests are (1) animal movement models, (2) Hidden Markov models and their applications in disease ecology, (3) Habitat selection models, and (4) Spatial biodiversity modeling.

I received my PhD at the University of Minnesota (UMN) in 2024, co-advised by Allison Shaw and John Fieberg. I am currently a postdoctoral associate co-advised by Jesús Pinto-Ledezma at UMN and Paul Moorcroft at Harvard University.
