🚨We’re hiring!🚨x2 Research Scientist positions: 1) Coral Restoration 🌊ceis.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?… 2) Shark Conservation 🦈ceis.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?… Ideal for an early-career graduate scientist looking to develop an independent program of research with a strong education component.

We had a great time getting back on the water with FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education & FIU Institute of Environment researchers from the Predator Ecology & Conservation Lab & Heithaus Lab for a #shark handling workshop. All sharks were caught and tagged under Florida research permits held by FIU scientists. #SundayFunday #rvANGARI

Check out this study led by PhD candidate, Brendan Talwar! 🦈

We loved being part of last week's #shark handling course with FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education and FIU Institute of Environment. The training participants received will allow them to undertake their own #fieldwork contributing to shark #biology and #conservation 🦈 For photos & info: hubs.ly/Q016bDTY0

We were thrilled to have students from Roosevelt Middle School (@RooseveltMidd10 The School District of Palm Beach County) onboard as #CoastalOceanExplorers last weekend to work side-by-side with FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education scientists to study & learn about the importance of sharks.

It’s #EarthDay and this year we are celebrating all of the great work our lab is doing to help research and protect our marine communities! 🦈 🐢

Check out PhD Candidate, Kristine Zikmanis, present on her juvenile bull shark acoustic tracking research as part of the Davidson Fellowship Gulf National Estuarine Research Reserves NOAA webinar this Thurs 6/2 @ noon EST! events-na13.adobeconnect.com/content/connec…

Kristine Zikmanis, PhD candidate, recently completed her goal of acoustically tagging 40 juvenile bull sharks. She hopes to learn how these sharks respond to seasonal & tidal changes in salinity & temperature to predict how bull sharks respond to an ongoing restoration project.
