Joe Roman is a conservation biologist and author of the books Whale and Listed: Dispatches from America's Endangered Species Act. His conservation research includes studies of the historical population size of whales, the role of cetaceans in the nitrogen cycle, the relationship between biodiversity and disease, and the genetics of invasions.[1][2][3]

Roman is a research professor in the Rubenstein School for the Environment and Natural Resources and a fellow at the Gund Institute for Ecological Economics at the University of Vermont. He received his PhD in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University in 2003 and was the Sarah and Daniel Hrdy Visiting Fellow in Conservation Biology at Harvard (2014–15). Born in Queens, New York, Roman lives in Vermont.
