The DePaul University Urban Ecology Research Program is lead by Liam Heneghan and Lauren Umek. We examine a variety of ecological issues, primarily those that pertain to the Chicago region. Recent research has centered around the long term ecological effects of the invasive shrub, European Buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica).
