I had the privilege of attending CV4Ecology as a student in January, and it was an incredible experience! I highly recommend applying to be an instructor. It's a great opportunity to have meet awesome people and have a big, positive impact on ecological researchers.
We're looking for our next cohort of amazing instructors for #CV4Ecology!! CV4E is an intensive workshop designed to empower ecologists to efficiently process their existing data, design new studies around CV, and scale their research to larger datasets.
Come work with us! My lab (Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics at Cornell) is hiring a postdoc to work on terrestrial bioacoustics and ecology. Study everything from gibbons and elephants to bird species like the giant ibis, and sarus crane. academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/31803

For the last 3 yrs, I was the director for the Science of Science program at the NSF. We funded projects on science communication - science communication to the public, communication of public priorities to scientists, citizens engagement & participation in science. 🧵
Still looking for these folks! You can also reach me on Signal 🧪🦊🦉🦑🐍
For a story: 1. Have you or someone you know been laid off from the USFWS? 2. Are you a scientist who can speak to how these cuts will affect conservation of specific endangered species or quality of the environment (water, air, etc)? Doesn't have to be both. But please DM me! 🧪
