UFBI Fellowships 2022-2023

The UF Biodiversity Institute encourages interdisciplinary research and training with three main foci: (1) using big data –  informatics, modeling, computation of heterogeneous data – to describe, understand, explain, and predict patterns of biodiversity and the processes that generated those patterns; (2) conducting large-scale, collaborative biological surveys to document and monitor biodiversity on a global scale; and (3) translating knowledge on biodiversity into action – conservation, policy, law, education, etc. – through relevant partnerships with journalists, social scientists, education specialists, lawyers, representatives of state and federal agencies, and others.
