IBioS seminar invitation – LFS G&PS Office

My name is Tatiana Chamorro, and I am the Student Ambassador for the Interdisciplinary Biodiversity Solutions Collaboratory (IBioS). This year, IBioS launched a Graduate Student Seminar series for students interested in social, ethical, and ecological issues and dilemmas surrounding biodiversity conservation, restoration, management, and governance.

The series aims to provide a community across faculties, disciplines, and labs. Students can present their research, meet faculty, and hear from partners in conservation about their career paths.

We would appreciate it if you could join and enjoy our planned series while meeting like-minded people (and enjoying some free food). We would also appreciate it if you could share with anyone you think would be interested.

Upcoming Seminars:

Tuesday, October 15 | 3:30-4:30 PM: Creating a Compelling Grant Proposal: Advice for Success (Prof. Mark Johnson, Faculty of Science, IRES/ EOAS)
Monday, October 21 | 12- 1 PM: Research Blitz: Grad Students Share Their Research on Biodiversity Conservation, Restoration, Management and Governance
