This JWO award is a brilliant opportunity for African early-stage researchers to fund applied research that matters for helping society and the environment in an otherwise challenging funding landscape.

Quite proud of this new article, a dream experiment involving spectrometers (on a tramway, in the NM desert 🤩), drones, calibration and satellite data cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

How can principles of best practices for using drones in biodiversity conservation be established? Dr. Anna Jackman (@UniRdg_GES) and Naomi Millner (@GeogBristol) share recommendations on considering human communities and wildlife via new @geogdirections blog 👇 orlo.uk/5aD8s

We’re launching our policy brief! For two years, more than 20 interdisciplinary scientists have collaborated to produce guidelines on using drones responsibly in biodiversity conservation. Please join us for the online launch and share the invite!

It was great contributing to this constructive interdisciplinary work led by Dr. Anna Jackman as part of a much larger conversation about how care is needed when use using tools like drones in conservation

It made me so happy to hear this news last year and again now, as I've been privileged to have Karen as brilliant mentor, role model, colleague, and friend for over a decade. You should be proud of your achievements.
