Great initiative!

Poster for 90 minute workshop on HOW TO DESIGN BETTER EXPERIMENTS, by Mridul Thomas & Ravi Ranjan. Details: September 23rd 16:00 CEST ; 14:00 UTC Description: Experimental designs can make or break an experiment. A good experiment has a clear goal and efficiently uses experimental resources to achieve that goal. In this workshop, we will review what experiments are for, basic and advanced principles of designing experiments, and how to use simulations to evaluate designs before actually doing the experiment. We’ll do a moderate amount of coding in R and so experience with this would be helpful but is not required. We intend to have small-group discussions to help participants develop their own experiments, and encourage participants to think of a specific question they would like to answer with an experiment.

@raviranjan.bsky.social & I are teaching a free online workshop with on experimental design for environmental scientists on the 23rd.

We'll focus on using simulations to evaluate how well different experimental designs help achieve your goals.

Congrats Kaustubh!! Welldeserved. Our team was very fortunate to have you join us in Lyon for your Master's thesis.

The work will mainly be empirical, but there is an opportunity for a collaboration with me at the University of Lyon (France) on a theoretical/modeling project. 💻📝

PhD position alert!🌿🔥

My friend and collaborator Orpheus Butler (Griffith University, Brisbane) is looking for a PhD student to work on "Ecosystem responses to fire: the role of plant–soil feedbacks".

Please apply if interested (before Aug. 16), and/or spread the word! t.co/GeUvnjs9eO

Job alert! Looking for a quantitative postdoc to see how dynamic species interactions affect stability - in theory and in marine food web data. Looking for someone versed in modeling and theory or marine food webs. Apply by Sept 30. Deets here:
