Scott Reynolds is currently the James W. Kinnear and Mary Tullis Kinnear Chair of Science at St. Paul’s School and managing partner at North East Ecological Services. Scott is primarily focused on conservation biology and wildlife management issues involving temperate bats. Scott’s past research has focused on demographics and reproductive physiology, renewable energy development, and the use of artificial roosts for the conservation of synanthropic bat species. Currently, Scott is focusing on integrating technology into existing field methodology including mark-recapture and acoustic monitoring.
Scott is a Certified Senior Ecologist with the Ecological Society of America and a Certified Wildlife Biologist with The Wildlife Society. Scott is a member of the North American Bat Conservation Alliance Steering Committee and has held multiple positions with the North East Bat Working Group.
