Meet the Speaker: Austin Green
Austin joined Sageland Collaborative in early 2024 and is so excited to be on the team! He received his Ph.D. from the University of Utah under the tutelage of Dr. Cagan Sekercioglu in the Biodiversity and Conservation Ecology Lab. His doctoral research involved creating and co-running Wildlife Watch, which he then used to answer an assortment of ecological questions about how human influence alters wildlife behavior and distribution across Utah and abroad using cutting-edge statistical modeling. With the project lending itself well to community and student involvement, Austin then began leading an undergraduate research lab at the University of Utah through the Science Research Initiative, which he continues today.
