M. Cruz Mateo Sánchez

Doctor in Forestry Engineering from the UPM. She is currently an assistant lecturer in the Department of Forest and Environmental Engineering and Management at the same University. She began her research with works on the management of protected species and spaces. Currently her research work is developed mainly in the field of landscape ecology, more specifically in the ecological modeling of connectivity and movement patterns of fauna.

PhD. in Forest engineering (Polytechnic University of Madrid). Assistant Professor at the Department of Forest and Environmental Engineering and Management of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. Her main research interests focus on landscape ecology, especially on ecological connectivity models and the effects of the landscape matrix on fauna movement patterns and their implications for species and protected areas management.

Doctora en Ingeniería de Montes por la UPM. En la actualidad es profesora ayudante doctor en el Departamento de Ingeniería y Gestión Forestal y Ambiental de la misma Universidad. Se inició en la investigación con trabajos sobre gestión de especies y espacios protegidos. Actualmente su  labor investigadora  se desarrolla principalmente en el campo de la ecología del paisaje, más concretamente en la modelización ecológica de la conectividad y de los patrones de movimiento de la fauna.
