Here's a couple of resources I wish I would have had access to as an undergrad:

Anyone ever find something they wish they had read going into grad school? Any particularly useful resources for learning statistics? Work life-balance? Finding grants?

I am working on putting together a webpage of annotated resources for graduate students in ecology. The goal is to have it mostly be free online resources, but there could be a book section as well. While many lab or student sites have a page with similar helpful resources, I am yet to find a page that really compiles them all--a sort of /ecology student's toolkit/ (but correct me if I am wrong!)

Topics include (but are not limited to):

- Grant / scholarship sources
- Research methods
- Statistics / R
- Time management
- Data sources
- Work-life balance
- Resources for Taxonomic ID
- Natural history blogs / inspiration
- Books/recommended readings
- Writing
- Data collection / smartphone apps.

Feel free to send me links to any blogs, blog posts, interactive tutorials, articles, apps, etc. that you have found useful as a grad student in ecology. I would greatly appreciate your help and happily acknowledge you on the website.

I will send out a follow-up email when this is complete--hope to have it done by this fall.

You can reply to: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> so that we don't clog up the list-serve.


Thank you!
