Bengaluru : The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) will be hosting an online workshop for Inclusive Ecology in February, 2023 and is currently accepting applications, with the deadline for submission being January 10 (Tuesday).

The workshop’s purpose is to expose applicants to broad concepts and approaches in quantitative thinking, behaviour, conservation, ecology and evolution. There will also be other workshops regarding life as a PhD student, building professional skills and careers in ecology.
