Proud to share a new pub, congrats coauthors!🎉 Biodiversity conservation is more effective with well trained folx--but what kinds of training lead to what conservation outcomes, & how are they assessed? Check out our new article on capacity development cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Two visionary giants in conservation and evolutionary biology, E.O. Wilson and Thomas Lovejoy, just died within a day of each other. They will be sorely missed nyti.ms/3Evmal1

My final dissertation chapter is out (after 6 years) 🎉! On changes to knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors as a result of volunteering in citizen science - interested? Check it out! Grateful to this amazing team of Mexicanas 🇲🇽! ¡Tan orgullosa! tandfonline.com/eprint/YGRQYAX…

I never saw my people or knowledge systems reflected throughout my career in the environmental sciences or conservation. So this means a lot to me. It’s my book release day & I’m celebrating the path forward for our future generations. 🍃

Our paper “Intentional mentoring should increase inclusivity in ecology” is out (Meena Balgopal Dani Lin Hunter Jennifer Neuwald, Ph.D. and Colleen Webb)! Mentoring, AND mentoring training, are necessary to make disciplines like ecology more inclusive. Check it out! esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

Some kids grow up wanting to forecast the weather ☔- in this paper we forecasted #algae blooms 🚣! Big thanks to Mary Lofton for leading the charge and to a top notch group of collaborators. Ecological Forecasting Initiative Ecological Applications #ecology

I'm thrilled to be here at NCEAS, working with interesting data and great people!

Grateful to have the opportunity to present with rockstar S&TPolicyFellowships fellows to the director of U.S. National Science Foundation on leveraging the post-doctoral mentorship plans. Never would have imagined myself here a year ago! (Btw applications for the fellowship are open! Just saying)

Four Ways the United States Can Still Fight Climate Change nytimes.com/2022/07/15/cli…

Never let anyone tell you that you can't! After a year S&TPolicyFellowships working on Arctic Science and Policy U.S. National Science Foundation, I had the pleasure of talking about my work in @IARPCCollab on community resilience and health, among others. And connecting with my amazing ⭐fellow Fellows. Keep at it!

How do #fieldcourses impact students? They can provide a voice in science, a community, way beyond knowledge generation. Check out our newest pub in American Institute of Biological Sciences! Thanks to⭐ co-authors Kira Treibergs @larcilah @ashheim & all who made it all worthwhile! bit.ly/3Rb27Pk

New research shows that weekly nature contact accounts for 31 % of the positive relationship between #NatureConnection & #wellbeing, but only accounts for 11% of the positive association between nature connection & pro-environmental behaviours bit.ly/3QyxEtO

The biggest project since my dissertation is off my desk and onto Congresses! So proud of all the work and collaborators that contributed to it. Now to move that Arctic observing agenda forward... But I'll save that for tomorrow.

Students from around the US gathered at NSF to start a 9 week Summer Scholars Internship Program - doing work to expand AI, visualize NSF funding in education, and communicate EPSCoR successes. So cool! So proud of their success so far. Sierra Jackson, Ph.D. Korie Grayson, PhD (she/her) Kay-Marie Lamar
