We are still recruiting Brazilian experts in species ID at Pivotal. It's remote flexible work so a really handy side gig!

If you can identify Brazilian plants or mammals from photos, of frogs, bats or birds from audio, please apply.

I did it!

I finally caught the bats flying on video!

Sound up to hear the frogs!

(I’ve been standing outside for about 20 minutes lol)

@drmambobob I had it a few weeks back. Seems to be about a lot in London rn

We had a family of skunks on our property when we lived in Ohio, and let me say, baby skunks are ridiculously cute.

How we learn from errors in our movements. @oza_anushka @MastishkayNamah @Apoorva___18 & @pratik_mutha show that learning mechanisms triggered by limb-related sensory #PredictionErrors & task-related performance errors are dissociable. While prediction errors drive implicit updates to motor plans, performance errors trigger deliberative selection of error-reducing actions. #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4bxtb5t

This is not macrophotography. This is a scale model of a wood ant (Formica lugubris) made by Julia Stoess. It is 100cm long and I want to spend the rest of my life looking at it.

If only it could have little motors in it so it could walk around... and do things....

At Pivotal we are using a really cool combination of AI and natural history expertise to identify species, which enables us to measure if biodiversity at a site is going up or down.

Integrating natural history expertise into ML driven species labelling processes is essential for accurate biodiversity measurement.

We are hiring! Field ecologist job. Travelling around collecting data, showing other people how to collect data, and bringing the data back for me (and others) to analyse!

This job has everything - drones, audiomoths, camera traps, cool locations, cool people, and you get to work with me.

Looking to connect with ecologists/natural historians in Japan - if anyone is based there, has worked there or has collaborators who work there I'd love to chat.

Got an exciting project on the horizon

One photo is 8 images focus stacked and the other is a single frame.
