The FWCB department search for a new quantitative ecologist faculty position continues this week with Dr. Elise Zipkin. Dr. Zipkin will be visiting Tuesday 4/2 and Wednesday 4/3. Many faculty members in the Conservation Biology Graduate Program are based in FWCB. New faculty appointments have many important teaching and research implications for the department, as well as the CB graduate program. Students are strongly encouraged to attend the graduate student lunch and research seminar as feedback from students is critical in informing the selection process. Research seminars can be accessed through a link on the FWCB website (right side of page) if you cannot attend in person. Please contact Nancy Rothman in the FWCB office for more information about the candidates.
The graduate student lunch with Dr. Zipkin will be this Wednesday (4/3) in 100 Skok Hall from noon to 1. A research seminar will follow at 3pm in Hodson 495. We hope to see you there!
Dr. Elise Zipkin is a Postdoctoral Researcher for the USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Laurel, MD. Dr. Zipkin received her Ph.D. in Biology in 2012 from the University of Maryland. Her research focuses on hierarchical models of species distributions and abundances.
A big thank you to those of you that have attended the previous activities for the other candidates!
