Looking for your first quantitative ecology post-doc? Then get in touch.
I will be co-supervising a post-doc with Lourens Swanepoel (based in SA: @Univenofficial). You will have access to many awesome data sets and the focus will be on applying hierarchical models.

Every academic needs three types of friend:
1) Friend who critiques your work with brutal honesty
2) Friend who drinks with you to recover from brutally honest critiques of your work
3) Friend with no knowledge of, or interest in, your work
