Information Practices in the Sciences of Biodiversity

这是一个专业发展奖学金，要求STS和信息科学方面的学者获得生物多样性和生物信息学方面的培训。在约翰·施纳斯博士的指导下，他将用一个学期的时间研究《北美植物志》的制作工作。在密苏里植物园进行的培训和人种学工作将得到伊利诺伊大学生态学和环境课程的补充。第二学期，PI将与南希·范·豪斯博士合作，并将访问位于圣巴巴拉的国家生态分析与合成中心。在整个培训过程中，他还将开展生物多样性科学的历史和民族志研究。

This is a Professional Development Fellowship that entails a scholar in STS and information science acquiring training in biodiversity and bioinformatics. For one semester he will study the work of producing the Flora of North America, under the supervision of Dr. John Schnase. The training and ethnographic work undertaken at the Missouri Botanical Garden will be complemented by coursework at the University of Illinois in ecology and the environment. For the second semester the PI will work with Dr. Nancy van house and will visit the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis, in Santa Barbara.
