Interested in fitting spatially-explicit occupancy models for large data? Check out my new R package spOccupancy (“spock🖖-upancy”) for efficient implementation of single species, multispecies, and integrated spatial occupancy models. Now on CRAN #rstats jeffdoser.com/files/spoccupa…

Following decades of sexual harassment and abuse at Smithsonian Panama, my fellow women scientists & I are demanding widespread policy reforms at Smithsonian from President Donald J. Trump and the @WhiteHouseGPC. Please consider signing our letter in support of tinyurl.com/WH-STRI @LauraLDunnEsq

Sigh... this is absolutely disgusting. I'm sorry that anyone has to deal with this. Sadly, these behaviors are all too common in ecology, and too often normalized as part of field work. One can only hope that these reports bring about necessary changes to keep people safe.

It's out! Paper published in Methods in Ecology and Evolution by me, @IntegratEcology, @MikeNoonanUBC and several twitterless collaborators. Do you want to accurately estimate home ranges and account for modern tracking data biases? Check it out here: doi.org/10.1111/2041-2… 🥳

Our new paper is out today! Come check out our meta-analysis of global urban predation patterns 🍖🌽🐀🦊

This is very nice, SCR models are apparently robust to minor movement violations, but home size inference is still tricky!

Gente en CR, apliquen a esto. Luego piden que el tiquete de avión se lo sumen a la compensación

One final stroll through Atlanta and we're set to go home after a very fun and productive #EEID2022, many thanks to all the organizers who made this such a great event! See you all next year!

The event of the summer is here! Bats, toxicology, physiology, proteomics, behavior, modelling, field work, experiments, and all given by an excellent presenter! Come see super star Natalia Sandoval, Ph.D in action!

Huge congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Natalia Sandoval! Natalia Sandoval, Ph.D absolutely crushed her PhD defense on effects of pesticides on bats. An incredibly comprehensive thesis and presentation, well done!

Check out this great post-doc opportunity with some excellent colleagues in Costa Rica!!

We are Hiring! Global South AI4PEP is looking for a communication and community engagement officer to join her team and generate new knowledge and collaborations that will inform policies and practices at various levels of government. Find details here: tinyurl.com/4czf6r6d

Excited to share my latest paper out now in STOTEN! authors.elsevier.com/a/1gXfuB8ccySqv Bats are vulnerable to toxicant exposure, but we lack methods to monitor this risk. We present some useful tools that we hope will inspire more research on stress biomarkers in this group 🦇☠️🤢

This was an amazing EEID2023, many thanks to all the organizers for an interesting and stimulating meeting! See you all next year in Stanford!

"Suffering in the field is not a requisite for graduate or early career training, but rather a signal that intervention is needed" Here's a nice systematic and comprehensive framework to approach field work safely, it's not just about staying alive! esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/77RGYUHS…

New article out! A collaboration with Osa Conservation using multiple methods to identify sites to implement wildlife road crossing structures in southern Costa Rica authors.elsevier.com/c/1jAwI14Z6tsr…

Just popping in here to share a new paper in collaboration with Osa Conservation. We analyzed conductance to determine connectivity along the Amistosa corridor, a critical conservation area in southern Costa Rica authors.elsevier.com/c/1jfqA1R~eWacq

New paper out! I used camera-traps, fecal sampling, and math models to study the potential for spillover of nematodes between domestic dogs and wild ocelots in the Osa peninsula. Is there a risk for wildlife? Read on to find out!🛖🐕💩🪱🐅🌳🌳 doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.4…
