BIOS² is hosting a training session about creating R packages!. This online workshop will be led by Dr Andrew MacDonald (Université de Sherbrooke), on May 4 and 6, 2021.
BIOS² is hosting a training workshop about analysis of point-count data in the presence of variable survey methodologies and detection error. This online training will be led by Dr. Péter Sólymos (University of Alberta), starting on March 16, 2021.
This training workshop is aimed towards researchers analyzing field observations, who are often faced by data heterogeneities due to field sampling protocols changing from one project to another, or through time over the lifespan of projects, or trying to combine ‘legacy’ data sets with new data collected by recording units.
In 2021, we will be holding a series of training and reflection activities on equity, diversity and inclusion issues. Our goal is to develop an EDI action plan for the program in order to consolidate a more inclusive, respectful and open environment.
A first training activity will take place on January 22, 2021. It is a short introduction to EDI concepts in a university context.
