About Nicole Jiao

Hi! My name is Nicole and I'm a first year Biology & Geography student at Durham University. I am particularly interested in restoration ecology, with a focus on rewilding which my research project is centred around. I aim to assess whether rewilding of an upland mountain catchment has created more stable microclimates through collecting ground data and aerial drone imagery. If so, this offers a tangible approach to improve the climate resilience of high biodiversity regions, reducing the risk of extinction for flora and fauna. Outside of academia, I enjoy reading, gardening and yoga. I'm excited to be part of the 2026 Laidlaw cohort!
