Postdoctoral-AI for Wildlife Conservation

Author:

Postdoctoral Fellowship (University of Michigan) on AI for Wildlife Conservation

The Conservation and Coexistence Research Group (https://www.coexistencegroup.com/) in the University of Michigan’s School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS) is looking to recruit a postdoctoral fellow to apply artificial intelligence (AI) approaches to problems and issues in the domain of wildlife conservation. The fellow would be mentored primarily by Dr. Neil Carter.

The fellow must apply to one of the following programs in the Michigan Institute for Data Science.
One is the Michigan Data Science Fellows program: https://midas.umich.edu/fellows/apply-2024/
The other is the Schmidt AI in Science Fellowship: https://midas.umich.edu/ai-in-science-2/apply-2/

Applications are due Nov 30th.

Please reach out to Dr. Carter (nhcarter@umich.edu) as soon as possible to inquire on research topics before the deadline. Topics of potential interest, for example, include using multimodal approaches (video/audio/text) to investigating human-wildlife coexistence, methods for detecting spatial signatures of human-wildlife interactions from remotely sensed imagery, or developing novel methods for integrating social and ecological data to advance the science and practice of coexistence.
