About the Author: C. Hui is a Professor of Mathematics and the South African Research Chair (SARChI) in Mathematical and Theoretical Physical Biosciences based at Stellenbosch University and the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences in South Africa. His research focuses on developing models and theories for explaining emerging patterns of biodiversity, networks, and traits in ecology and evolution. CH has published more than 190 papers and received the Elsevier Young Scientist Award in 2011. CH and David M. Richardson authored the book Invasion Dynamics (Oxford University Press). CH is a core-team member of the DST-NRF Centre of Excellence for Invasion Biology and is on the editorial board of several journals, including Biological Invasions (Springer), BMC Ecology (BioMed Central), Ecological Complexity (Elsevier), Insect Conservation and Diversity (Wiley), and Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution.
P. Landi is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Stellenbosch University and Visiting Scientist at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA, Austria). He received his PhD with distinction in Information and Communication Technology from Politecnico di Milano in 2014 and involved in the Southern African Young Scientists Summer Programme as a co-supervisor. His main research interests include modelling evolutionary dynamics in socio-ecological systems. PL has published 10 papers and co-authored the book Modelling Love Dynamics (World Scientific).
H.O. Minoarivelo is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Stellenbosch University. She received her MSc in Computer Science and PhD in Mathematical Ecology from the same university. Her work focuses on the eco-evolutionary dynamics of mutualistic networks. She has published 6 papers and co-authored a book chapter (Springer).
A. Ramanantoanina is a Postdoctoral Fellow currently at the University of Western Cape. She received her PhD in Mathematics from Stellenbosch University. Her research focuses on modelling spatial and trait dynamics of ecological systems using partial differential equations. She has published 5 papers and co-authored one book chapter (Springer).
