SUMMARY:Workshop on the contribution of UK Arctic Ocean science to the International Polar Year 32/33
DESCRIPTION:NOC Southampton \nIn-person (with online option) \nRegistration deadline 16th May \nREGISTER HERE \nPre-meeting questionnaire (open to all) \n  \nThe purpose of this workshop is for the UK Ocean Science community to discuss and then draft a prospectus document outlining the priority Arctic research questions the community would like to address during the run up to\, throughout and beyond the International Polar Year 32/33. Additionally\, to identify what unique strengths and technologies the UK has to help fill these knowledge gaps. \nThe second day of the workshop will be dedicated to writing groups\, one for each of the priority research questions identified – from both the pre-meeting questionnaire (HERE) and day one discussion. By the end of the meeting\, each group will have produced draft text and sourced supporting figures for the prospectus. \nPost meeting\, the draft will be opened for comments and suggestions from everyone\, regardless of whether they were able to attend the workshop or not. It will then be shared with UK funders (UKRI\, FCDO\, DSIT\, ARIA) and potential international programmes with whom we would like to collaborate (e.g. Arctic 2050\, Norway). It will form a basis from which wider integration with terrestrial\, atmospheric and cryosphere communities can be built\, e.g. at the UK Arctic Science Meeting in September in Northumbria. \nTo ensure balanced community and ECR representation\, and to ensure that the size of the writing groups is efficient and effective\, if the number of registrations from individual institutes becomes overwhelming\, we may contact individuals or teams and ask that each institute selects a smaller number of individuals to attend in-person. Please wait for confirmation of in-person attendance before finalising travel arrangements. \nThe workshop will be open to hybrid attendance and contributions on both days. \n

SUMMARY:Online training: Qualitative Methods for Conservation
DESCRIPTION:Do you need to build your skills in qualitative research methods? \nAre you planning to conduct research interviews…but you’ve not had any training? \nIf you’ve answered yes to either of these questions\, you need the Qualitative Methods for Conservation course running online at the end of April. \nQualitative research methods such as interviews or focus groups gather text based data – like the transcripts of interviews. \nBut many conservation professionals are not trained in qualitative methods.  They are not sure where to start and often don’t have an experienced network to support them through a project. \nConservation is a complicated topic.  Qualitative methods (e.g. interviews) gather text-based data.  These methods allow researchers to gather insights into those complex topics\, providing valuable tools for gathering evidence.  But they are specialist methods which require a sound understanding of how to use them to ensure that good quality evidence is gathered in safe ways. \nThe Qualitative Methods for Conservation course gives you the knowledge\, practice and confidence to use qualitative research methods in your own projects.  The course is led by Dr Rebecca Jefferson\, an experienced social scientist and trainer.  And you’ll join a group of people who share your ambitions to build this skill set in a welcoming space \n  \nHere’s some feedback from two previous course participants: \nI feel much better equipped to navigate the complexities of qualitative research\, community collaboration\, and the ethical considerations involved. (Lecturer and researcher\, Indonesia) \nI was not expecting the course to be as interactive\, fun and loaded of interesting tools as it was. I really enjoyed it and had fun\, plus I made new friends!  (PhD researcher\, US) \n  \nIf you also want to feel better equipped to use qualitative research\, then this course is for you. \n  \nThe course is run online over five sessions daily from Monday 28th April to Friday 2nd May from 10am to 3pm (BST) each day.  You also get a 45 minute 1:1 after the course to support you as you implement your new skills.  Standard rate £450 / reduced rate £385. \n  \nTo book your place visit https://humannature.co.uk/qmc or email course lead Dr Rebecca Jefferson at rebecca@humannature.co.uk with questions.

SUMMARY:Kuzma Kirillovich Tereshchenko - A Hidden Ichthyologist and His Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Webinar by Takaaki Iwai \nFisheries are internationally crucial in food supply\, so it is important to understand the origin of mathematical models used in the field. Kuzma Kirillovich Tereshchenko (1893-1930)\, who had a career background in politics\, published a paper on bream (Abramis brama) population in 1917. This influenced famous On the Question of the Biological Basis of Fisheries (1918) by Fedor Ilyich Baranov (1886-1965) which is considered as the first theoretical mathematical model in fisheries. However\, unlike Baranov\, Tereshchenko is rarely discussed in the Western world.

SUMMARY:EMB webinar - Deep-sea knowledge for effective Ocean management
DESCRIPTION:Despite its immense ecological importance\, the deep sea remains underrepresented in policy considerations and global conservation efforts. With 90% of ocean species undescribed and many natural functions poorly understood\, the deep sea faces significant threats from unsustainable resource exploitation and climate change. Europe has a pivotal role to play in leading international measures to protect and manage the deep sea. While the EU’s International Ocean Governance Agenda and Biodiversity Strategy already emphasize marine biodiversity protection\, there is an urgent need to translate these agendas into action\, particularly concerning the deep sea. \nDuring this webinar\, EMB will launch its Future Science Brief No 12\, titled ‘Deep Sea Research and Management Needs’. This brief addresses the critical need to increase our knowledge on the deep sea\, an often-overlooked yet vital component of our global ecosystem and climate regulation. Effective management of this environment require a robust scientific foundation and international cooperation. Science-policy communication and transdisciplinary research will be crucial in the sustainable use of the deep sea\, particularly as the BBNJ Agreement Conference of Parties (COPs) unfolds.

SUMMARY:Exploring AI Ethics in Life Sciences: Online Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Scottish AI Alliance will facilitate an interactive digital workshop exploring how ethics relates to the use of Artificial Intelligence technologies. \nStarting with a wide introduction to the history of ethics to establish a common understanding of the language and importance of ethics within the world of tech\, we will then explore where ethical issues exist within the intersection of life sciences and AI through a case study session where we will dissect real-life use cases through the lens of Scotland’s AI Strategy and its vision for Scotland to become a leader in trustworthy\, ethical and inclusive AI. \nParticipants will be encouraged to engage in discussions around ethical issues related to their field of work as a group\, then splitting into smaller working groups to apply an ethical lens to further real-life case studies drawn from the use of AI in life sciences.
