Activities
QESIG - Quantitative Ecology Special Interest Group
What is QESIG?
The aim of this group is to connect early-career researchers interested in Quantitative Ecology, Macroecology, and Data Science, to share scientific ideas, and to promote research collaboration.
QESIG is also meant to bring together PhD students, who share a similar interest and view on science – who value best practices on reproducibility, transparency, and open science. It is envisioned as several meetings per year for PhDs to share experiences and build a good peer-to-peer support group.
