Il prof. Danilo Russo è professore ordinario di Ecologia presso il Dipartimento di Agraria dell’Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, associate professor presso il Museo di Storia Naturale di Berlino e honorary professor dell’Università di Bristol (UK), presso la quale ha svolto il suo PhD. I suoi interessi sono diversificati e comprendono la selezione dell’habitat, la partizione delle risorse, l’ecologia sensoriale, il comportamento sociale, la biologia evoluzionistica, la biogeografia e l’ecologia delle invasioni. Le ricerche del prof. Russo riguardano sovente i chirotteri, ma anche altri organismi che possano fungere da modello per esplorare i temi che gli sono cari. Dal 2019 al 2023 è stato chair dell’Advisory Committee della Convenzione UNEP EUROBATS ed è anche stato chair del management committee dell’Azione COST CLIMBATS (CA18107). Il prof. Russo è stato editor in chief di una delle riviste scientifiche di punta del panorama zoologico internazionale, Mammal Review. Ha pubblicato oltre 200 articoli su riviste scientifiche internazionali di alto profilo, tra cui Current Biology, Nature Communications, Ecology Letters e Biological Reviews e ha, al 29 agosto 2025, un Hindex = 55 (Scopus) / 68 (Google Scholar). Ha condotto lavoro di campo in numerose regioni del globo e in molteplici ecosistemi, come le foreste pluviali africane, i deserti del Medio Oriente e le faggete vetuste italiane. I suoi studi sono stati ripresi dalle principali testate internazionali e nazionali, come Nature, Science, New Scientist, National Geographic, BBC, New York Times, The Economist, The Independent, The Telegraph, SkyNews, Repubblica.
