I was asked to co-teach the Advanced Ecology this past fall (graduate core course @uricels). I decided to dedicate half of my section to talking about decolonizing Ecology. Evals suggest I made a good choice: #DecolonizingEcology #DiversityandInclusion #BlackinSTEM #LatinxinSTEM

An amazing stats resourse. I highly recommend this course for thinking deeper about statistics in general and the beauty of Bayesian methods.
