QAEco congratulates alumnus Emily Nicholson for winning one of four inaugural veski Inspiring Women Fellowships this month. The new scheme is designed to support outstanding female researchers from postdoctoral to tenured positions as they raise families. (On this theme, check out her terrific Science piece on accounting for career breaks in a CV here.)
Emily reports that she’ll be using the fellowship funds to support a post-doctoral researcher in her lab and two workshops on her important IUCN Red List of Ecosystems research.
