It was a treat to interview Laura Govers, a seagrass and intertidal restoration wizard based at the University of Groningen. Dr. Govers visited @uvicenvi.bsky.social last spring.

Do you appreciate that we take care of a large archive of research and writing that goes back nearly 20 years?
If so, help us keep the lights on, donate to our fundraising campaign. Still stuck at 60%! Can you help us move to 65%?

All great suggestions but I feel your pain on volume of applications. Do you have threshold criteria—achievement and practical—that can filter the applications? This step can be undertaken by someone else without compromising the integrity of the process. This makes your job more tractable.

Big thanks to PhD student, Claire Wright, who managed the fieldwork, & Wildfire Canada, and Jasper National Park for great support. Great to work alongside UBC faculty Jeanine Rhemtulla & Lori Daniels. We were delighted to have artist/photographer Desirée Patterson and writer Jesse Winter join us.
