The Foxx Disrupting Ecology Lab
My name is Alicia Foxx and I work to make science better and how I can give back to my community through my work.
I'm a Conservation Scientist at the Chicago Botanic Garden and Assistant adjunct professor at Northwestern University in the Plant Biology and Conservation Graduate Program. I work to understand fundamental and applied ecology topics using experimental studies, and synthesis and data science. I also interrogate methods and best practices, ultimately to improve equity, inclusion, and reproducibility in research.
Happy to chat about research and connect.

Prospective students
I welcome prospective students to email me if interested in these research areas and my values. I am not recruiting PhD students directly from undergraduate studies, unless the prospective student has strong work and/or lived experiences. I am not recruiting PhD students for Fall of 2026.
