> *The ESA Annual Meeting is going virtual! *
>
> In the interest of the health and safety of our attendees, ESA will once
> again transition its Annual Meeting to an all-virtual model. The meeting
> will still take place August 2-6, 2021, and provide an opportunity for you
> to join colleagues and leaders from across the field and around the world
> for five days of inspiration and community focused on your research and
> your career.
>
> While we will miss seeing you in person, we are excited that the meeting
> will offer new opportunities to broaden participation and remove
> geographical barriers.
>
>    - Similarly to the 2020 virtual meeting, this year's meeting will
>    offer a combination of on-demand and live content.
>    - All individual presentations (talks and posters) will be uploaded in
>    advance and made available to all registered meeting attendees starting one
>    week before the meeting (Monday, July 26).
>    - Live meeting content will be scheduled Monday through Thursday.
>    Traditional pre-meeting content (workshops and short courses) will talk
>    place on Friday.
>    - Live discussions will be scheduled for all on-demand oral and poster
>    sessions. These discussions will be 60 minutes long, twice as long as in
>    2020, and will include all contributed sessions for the first time. These
>    live videos will be for general discussion, not giving presentations.
>    - Access to the meeting will be available to all registered meeting
>    attendees for several months after the meeting's conclusion.
>
>
> Check your email for frequent updates about the virtual Annual Meeting. An
> announcement regarding applications for registration funding will be made
> soon. We will open registration for the Annual Meeting in May.

> Funded PhD Opportunity

>
> The Brym Lab at the University of Florida (UF) is recruiting a PhD-level
> Graduate Assistant for a project to evaluate aflatoxin risk in field and
> processing stages of the peanut supply chain. The student will be expected
> to establish an agroecosystems assessment of the environmental, ecological,
> and management factors contributing to aflatoxin contamination. They will
> work at the field level to determine how weather, field characteristics,
> and management strategies affect aflatoxin risk. They will work at the food
> system level will synthesize information from the field investigation and
> novel sensing technologies to evaluate aflatoxin risk factors and
> interventions during peanut harvest and storage. This is a data and
> computationally intensive program. The position is supported by industry
> grants and sponsorship, including the National Peanut Board and Premium
> Peanut

>
> As of December 2020, the endowment has grown to $120,436 - drawing us
> closer to our goal of $400,000 to support exploration and discovery of
> ecological science and careers for undergraduates through field trips.

> Sierra graduated from Bethune Cookman University with a degree in
> Integrated Environmental Science. She became involved with SEEDS through
> the Society for Wetland Scientists (SWS) when she was nominated to attend
> the New Orleans Field trip in 2012. She says this field trip had a dramatic
> impact on her and helped her determine what she was not only good at but
> passionate about to pursue as a career. During this trip she learned the
> importance of how community science, science communication, education, and
> policy blends together.
> Currently she works as a Park Naturalist for Broward County, FL where she
> implements citizen science, outreach, and education. SEEDS helped her
> understand the importance of finding solutions through science with
> community in mind.
> One piece of advise Sierra would give to current SEEDS students is to stay
> openminded and be willing to stay 'teachable'. Science, and specific
> ecology/environmental science, is so broad nobody will have all the answers
> and we need to be willing to work across disiplines, always with community
> in mind.
