生态适应和保护生物学研究组 —— 组长：杜卫国
杜卫国男，博士生导师，中国科学院动物研究所动物生态与保护生物学重点实验室副主任、研究员。浙江大学生态学博士毕业。2015年获国家杰出青年基金资助。担任中国动物学会副秘书长、中国动物学会两栖爬行动物学分会副理事长，以及SCI期刊Proceedings of the Royal Society B，Integrative Zoology，Journal of Experimental Zoology和Asian Herpetological Research编委等学术职务。主要从事爬行动物生理和进化生态学研究，发现爬行动物胚胎能通过行为热调节应对环境温度变化，改变了胚胎缺乏主动调控能力的传统观点。在包括PNAS, Current Biology, Biological Reviews, Proceedings of the Royal Society B, Functional Ecology等国际期刊上发表SCI 论文100余篇。目前承担国家重点研发计划、国家自然科学基金等科研项目。
