Life update: Just submitted my dissertation - now off to the pub. Thank you everyone that helped me get to this point - especially my awesome supervisors Rob Salguero-Gómez and İrem Sepil ! Feeling full of gratitude right now and soon, hopefully, Guinness ☺️.

We are looking for a MS level student to help populate the PADRINO IPM Database! This is an excellent position for someone eager to improve their R skills, and to get a proper introduction into statistical and population modeling. Position is based at the iDiv Biodiversity Research! idiv.de/fileadmin/cont…

Feeling full of gratitude right now 🥹. Thank you everyone who has made these past few years the best I could have asked for - especially my amazing supervisors Rob Salguero-Gómez and İrem Sepil . So grateful for all the inspiration, growth and friendships built over the DPhil.



NEW PREPRINT📢: Here, Maja Kajin, İrem Sepil, Rob Salguero-Gómez and I use open-access 🪴 IPMs from the PADRINO IPM Database database to test the ability of four measures of demographic buffering to infer population responses to variable environments☀️🌧️🌡️.
