It is with great sadness that I have to resign as @eLife editor and early-career advisor after @mbeisen was fired as editor-in-chief for making use of his freedom of speech to stand up – once again – for the people who were silenced. A brief statement here:
I have been informed that I am being replaced as the Editor in Chief of @eLife for retweeting a @TheOnion piece that calls out indifference to the lives of Palestinian civilians.

I am recruiting Ph.D. students to join my lab at FSU in 2024. We use quantitative methods, modeling and field work to study spatial ecology of nearshore systems. A particularly good match for students who enjoy playing with high tech toys like autonomous boats and computer vision
