Tiedoksi gradutyöryhmän lakkautus
by Lumi Viljakainen 22 Dec '21

22 Dec '21

Hei, Tiedoksi, että gradutyöryhmä on päätetty lakkauttaa. Perusteena se, että lausunnot eivät juuri ole herättäneet työryhmässä keskustelua, koska ne tulevat pääosin meidän omalta henkilökunnalta, jolla on pitkä kokemus arvioinneista. Jatkossa minä tutkinto-ohjelman vastuuhenkilön roolissa hyväksyn arvioidut gradut. Mikäli on kyse minun ohjaamastani tai tarkastamastani gradusta, tai jos olen estynyt, toimii Seppo Rytkönen hyväksyjänä. Jos jonkun lausunnon ja arvosanan kohdalla tulee epäröintiä (esim. ulkopuoliset tarkastajat), käännymme Biologian tutkinto-ohjelmatoimikunnan jäsenien puoleen. Toinen peruste gradutyöryhmän lakkauttamiselle oli se, että koska työryhmän kokoontumisia oli kerran kuukaudessa, kuihdutti se tutkinto-ohjelmatoimikunnan kokoontumiset vain muutamaan per vuosi. Näen tärkeämpänä, että tutkinto-ohjelmatoimikunta kokoontuisi kerran kuukaudessa jotta tärkeät asiat mm. koulutustoimikunnasta välittyisivät yksikköön paremmin. Jatkossa gradut pitää tarkastaa muutamaa päivää ennen tutkintotodistuksen anomusta. Anomuspäivät ovat samat kandi- ja maisteritutkinnoissa: https://www.oulu.fi/fi/opiskelijalle/opinnaytetyo-ja-valmistuminen/maisteri… Terveisin, Lumi

Reminder: Biology Thursday seminar Today: Dr. Pizza Chow: Urban wildlife cognition
by Heikki Helanterä 16 Dec '21

16 Dec '21

Dear colleagues, A reminder: the last Biology Thursday seminar of this year will take place at 12:15 (zoom link below), given by Dr. Pizza Chow from University of Oulu / Max Planck Institute for Ornithology / University of Exeter: Living in the city: An overview of urban wildlife cognition. Abstract. Urban environments have a different landscape from most, if not all, natural environments. Such environments pose a different type of challenges and opportunities for many urban wildlife species. In responding to these challenges and opportunities, many urban wildlife species have been shown to adjust their behaviours. However, much less is known about how urban environments have affected cognition, a mechanism that is tightly related to behaviour. Here, I will briefly talk about the concept of cognition as well as the cognitive tasks that are deemed to be valid in investigating urban wildlife cognition. I will then discuss the use of (inter- and intra- specific) comparative approaches that my collaborators and I have taken to advance the understanding in urban wildlife cognition. More on Pizza's research at: https://squirrelp.com/ See you soon, Heikki Heikki Helanterä is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Otso From: Gabriela Schaepman-Strub [mailto:gabriela.schaepman@ieu.uzh.ch] Sent: tiistai 14. joulukuuta 2021 13.50 To: twg(a)iasc.info Subject: Postdoc opportunity in Arctic biodiversity and ecosystem functioning Dear all, Please help me to distribute the below announcement to potential postdoc candidates. Thank you very much for your support and have a relaxing holiday season – Gabriela -- POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER POSITION in Arctic biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, starting as soon as possible (but no later than spring 2022) for 2 years, with option for prolongation. Are you interested in Arctic ecosystems and their current and future changes? Do you have a background in earth system science, ecology, remote sensing, biogeosciences or in a related field and are experienced in (spatial) statistical analyses and programming? Then our postdoc position might be attractive to you. You will work in an interdisciplinary, international, diverse environment. Your main task will be to support our Siberian tundra precipitation experiment (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mex.2021.101331). You might further contribute to the EU-CHARTER project on ‘Drivers and feedbacks of changes in Arctic terrestrial biodiversity’. Our research group (https://www.ieu.uzh.ch/en/research/ecology/spatial.html) is highly interdisciplinary and we integrate methods reaching from in situ experimental research, observational methods (including drone and satellite-based remote sensing), large-scale data syntheses, to modelling approaches for studying vegetation changes and feedbacks, especially through energy fluxes, in the Arctic system. This postdoc position will allow you to further develop your academic profile, with opportunities in publishing, co-supervision of MSc and PhD students, teaching, and grant applications. Exact definition of the job profile will be discussed in more detail during job negotiations. The position will be at postdoc level (80-100%), for initially 2 years (including a 3-months trial period), with an option for prolongation. Working location is at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, in our brand-new facilities on Irchel campus, and out in the Siberian tundra during summer time for field work.
