The overall objective of the Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Agroecosystems and Development is to advance the diagnostics of agroecosystems and translate optimal design into on-farm practice and policy. Dr. Isaac¿s multidisciplinary approach draws on ecology, biogeochemistry, and development studies to better understand the intersection of people and the plants they grow. Strategies, such as enhanced biodiversity in agricultural landscapes, can curb many of the negative impacts associated with current food production systems. Dr. Isaac¿s research program will develop these critical strategies and contribute novel diagnostics for the management of local and global sustainable agroecosystems.

加拿大农业生态系统与发展二级研究主席的总体目标是推进农业生态系统的诊断，并将最佳设计转化为农场实践和政策。艾萨克博士的多学科方法借鉴了生态学，地球化学和发展研究，以更好地了解人类和他们种植的植物的交集。加强农业景观生物多样性等战略可以遏制与当前粮食生产系统相关的许多负面影响。艾萨克博士该研究计划将制定这些关键战略，并为当地和全球可持续农业生态系统的管理提供新的诊断方法。
