At Naturalis we want to accelerate the monitoring of species. This will require cutting edge research in #biodiversity and in #datascience and #AI as well. Together with Leiden Computer Science we are recruiting an assistant professor in computational biodiversity: universiteitleiden.nl/vacatures/2024…
