Calling all early-career ecologists 🐨 Mentee registration is NOW OPEN for ESA’s July Speed Mentoring Week! 🔹 Book up to 3 one-on-one sessions with experienced ecologists 🔹 Get answers to your biggest career questions 🔹 Flexible, impactful, and designed for YOU 🔗 Register now tinyurl.com/bderjjxj

Speed mentoring for early career ecologists

Calling all early career ecologists!

The ESA Mentoring Program supports Early Career Ecologists by connecting them with mentors from academia and industry. The program provides a space to explore topics such as career development, work-life balance, research pathways, and navigating challenges in the profession.

When you register as a mentee, you will be invited to browse the profiles of our registered mentors and enjoy a unique opportunity to book up to three 30-minute sessions.

Mentee registration for the July week is now OPEN

A few things to note:
If you’ve been part of the ESA Mentoring Program before – or been mentored elsewhere – you’re still welcome to apply.
Mentees must be current ESA members to participate.
Sessions will be held online (Zoom)
There is no ongoing commitment – mentors and mentees may choose to continue the conversation after the mentoring week, but there is no expectation to do so.
If July doesn’t suit, look out for the October round (registrations open in September).

✅ Do you use R or Python? ✅ Are you an ecologist/biologist? Then you might find our website ALA Labs useful! ALA Labs is full of how-to articles to visualise or analyse biodiversity data. Some are for beginners, others are advanced/experimental 😀 labs.ala.org.au 🧪🌏 #rstats #python #quartopub

An animated scroll through an ALA Labs post, showing code, text and visuals to make a data visualisation in R. The article is on how to make a hexagon map of Australia, where each hexagon is an area of Australia, and each point in the hexagon is positioned and coloured to represent a species.

Examples of dataviz that ALA Labs posts show how to make in R. They are colourful and fun. One of them is even 3D!
