Departments at UFZ

I’m exited to share that I’ve started working as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral candidate at the Helmholtz center for Environmental Research- UFZ, Germany.
As a part of BEYOND project, I’ll be working to improve the European streams in an era of global change.

Last week, I successfully defended my master's thesis. I would like to extend special thanks to my wonderful advisor, Dr. Amber Ulseth @ajulseth.bsky.social.

As I celebrate this milestone, I am excited to explore more opportunities to learn about fascinating flowing waters.

A huge congratulations to #SHSU Biology student - Hasara Siriwardane @hasara.bsky.social on her successful defense of her Master’s thesis! Well done Hasara!

Thank you Dr. Hotchkiss! @fluvialbenthos.bsky.social

Thank you Dr. Ulseth @ajulseth.bsky.social !! Couldn’t have done without your continuous support and motivation.

Some hex stickers representing R package are on the sides.
