Dr Scott Glaberman is an Associate Professor in the School of Biosciences at the University of Birmingham. His work bridges evolution, physiology, and molecular biology to study how organisms respond to environmental stresses like pollution, climate change, and contaminants, with an emphasis on producing results that can shape regulation and policy. He has a diverse background—starting in archaeology and moving through infectious disease, conservation genetics, and toxicology—having worked at institutions such as the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Environmental Protection Agency. Among his research interests are how different species vary in their sensitivity to chemicals, using large datasets in a One Health framework, exploring cancer resistance and longevity in long-lived animals such as turtles, and developing model organisms for toxicology studies.
