MSc in Conservation Science at @imperialcollege. Follow to discover more about our course and research
Sunningdale, South East
Joined October 2017
This PhD opportunity looks so fascinating! Moving beyond rational actor theory explanations of deforestation to explore the role of 'cattle culture' in the Brazilian Amazon. Likely of interest to @ConSciImperial, @DICE_Kent & @MScBiodiversity MSc grads
Fully-funded inter-disciplinary PhD with me @LancsUniLEC & @DrChrisIves @UoNGeography. On role of cultural value shifts (e.g. 'cattle culture') in advancing #deforestation frontiers in Brazilian #Amazon. UK students only. https://t.co/WZ5G9j8axC

Ever wonder what Mufasa would say to Simba looking down from Pride Rock in the 21st century? Read @JoshRobertson_1's blog post, which takes a closer look at his research on environmental predictors of livestock predation by #lions. 🦁 https://t.co/oXaR1FqsgP

Always here to let you know you're not alone, this week the ConSci blog by @kathleenmdrake takes an optimistic stance on things not quite going to plan. https://t.co/Qgd38z8NfB

Struggling with big data during your project? You're not the only one! Lisa Kopsieker, @KopsiekerLisa, writes this weeks ConSci blog on the dreaded four letter word.... Data. https://t.co/theDzCPTHL
aev1018.wixsite.com
We all curse it, love it, analyse it, (try to) understand it and ultimately, we all need it….data. It’s true, as conservationists we can’t do anything without data. How can we make a decision without...

As an exceptionally organised person, it has been great to read this blog by Holly P-Brown, @LanaDeLaRio, about prioritising your workload during projects and making sure you remember to sleep!! https://t.co/J383tuRdYI
aev1018.wixsite.com
Undertaking a research project is a lot of work on its own. This is especially the case when it’s your first time doing one and, as in my case, it’s on a topic you know very little about. We then...

This weeks blog post is written by @GraceNolan and delves into the world of #journaling during your #research project!! "Think of it as an appendix to the thesis – the colour photography to support the black and white text" https://t.co/VMaYlKGwNn

In many ways it seems so unbalanced that we spend six months working on our thesis projects to only deliver a final 6000 word paper. I don’t mean to devalue this piece of work and I am aware that...

The importance of putting theory into practice is often heard round school classrooms and university lecture halls, but does this idea fade as we enter the workplace? Before starting this master’s...

Hey @ConSciImperial alumni, giving this #SaveConSci survey a final push in case there is anyone who wants to contribute but hasn't had chance yet. The survey will be closing on Sunday, so you have THREE MORE DAYS to HAVE YOUR SAY to @imperialcollege.
CALLING @ConSciImperial ALUMNI! As you may be aware, the @imperialcollege ConSci MSc is suspended for the 2019/20 academic year, with no commitment from Dpt Life Sciences about the course returning. Have your say about this huge loss to #conservation: https://t.co/k0WdKiKDS8

This weeks Drop Bear #blog is written by @acethecurious on her experience with @ExtinctionR! "We need #change, now. And YOU can make a difference, just like my little tush did dancing away to the samba band at Marble Arch, small but NEVER insignificant." https://t.co/sa7goYNpdM
