Elizabeth Hadly (born 1958) is an academic and researcher working in biology, earth/environmental science, and paleoecology. As a professor in the Department of Biology at Stanford University, she holds the Paul S. and Billie Achilles Chair of Environmental Science and is the Head of the Faculty Senate. [1] [2] [3] Her research interests include links between ecology and evolution, and understanding of the impacts of the Anthropocene. [4]
Growing up in a military family that moved frequently, Hadly found consistency within nature. [1]
Hadly has interest in research within local scale impacts of climate change and emphasizes the importance of local conservation efforts. [5]
Hadly studied anthropology at University of Colorado Boulder. She initially pursued a pre-med track before gaining interest in human history within the fossil record [1] which then evolved to include the environment and climate and how it functioned before humans. [6]
She volunteered in Yellowstone National Park in 1982, which led to a full-time paleoecologist position there. [1] Her work in the park service funded her master's degree in quaternary science at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff that she received in 1990. [1]
Between 1991 and 1994 she worked towards and was awarded a PhD in integrative biology awarded by the University of California, Berkeley. [2]
From 1995 to 1998, she taught as an assistant research professor at Montana State University. [7]
She was a research associate for UCMP (University of California Museum of Paleontology) from 1995 to 2013 [7] before becoming a professor at Stanford University.
In September 2016, Hadly became faculty director for the Stanford Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, [2] where she has worked on defining the Anthropocene, [8] the Insect Apocalypse, food webs from feces, soil, and cameras, and reverse spillover - how animals are impacted by human-shed microbes. [9]
Since 2018, she has also been a professor at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. [10]
Currently teaching at Stanford University, she provides students with field and lab experiences [9] with the belief that hands-on learning enhances problem-solving skills and helps students better understand complex issues. She works to promote diversity through unique locations of study, assisting students from less privileged backgrounds, and interdisciplinary science. [11]
Hadly has published over 100 scholarly papers with over 8,000 citations recorded. [12] Her published papers can be found within many databases including the National Library of Medicine database under "Hadley EA [Author]". [13]
Hadly's current research focus is on ecology, evolution, population biology, and genomics. [9]
In collaboration with her husband, Anthony Barnosky, and others, she co-authored a 2012 Nature paper on climatic 'tipping points' [14] and is also co-author, with Barnosky, of Tipping Point for Planet Earth, How Close Are We to the Edge? (2016). [15] She and Barnosky appeared in the 2015 documentary film, Tomorrow. [16]
In recognition of her contributions to academia and research, Hadley was awarded the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor Award, which includes a $1 million grant over five years. [10]
Hadly holds the position of Head of the Faculty Senate at Stanford University. [1]
She is a Senior Fellow of Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment. [17]
Hadly is a member of the Biox Stanford faculty grassroots organization. [1]
