I am Reader in Statistics at the School of Mathematics, Statistics and Actuarial Science (SMSAS) of the University of Kent and a member of the Statistical Ecology @ Kent (SE@K) group and of the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE). My research expertise is in developing new statistical models and associated software for modelling data on nature, for example monitoring migration and phenological patterns of populations, citizen science and related data, and for monitoring biodiversity using DNA-based survey data.  See more on my personal website.

Hello! I am a wildlife ecologist with 20 years of experience and have worked as a field biologist and research scientist on projects in Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Over the past decade, I coordinated university courses, presented lectures, organised fieldtrips and supervised student projects at undergraduate and post-graduate level in my former capacity as university lecturer. Between 2006 and 2020, I managed a captive breed-for-release programme for a native New Zealand lizard (Duvaucel’s gecko) and led five conservation translocations involving this species. I work closely with GOs and NGOs to integrate conservation research with wildlife management practice.  I am currently taking a deliberate career break to explore my creative interests, pursue personal projects, advance my skillsets and connect with inspiring people. I continue to support local biodiversity restoration initiatives in Auckland/ New Zealand by coordinating and implementing a wildlife monitoring programme spanning several re-introduced Duvaucel’s gecko populations.

During his six-year stay and study in Hungary, Thabang worked as an assistant lecturer and supervised students’ research. He also worked with the International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation (CIC) as a project assistant. Currently, he serves as Head of the Responsible Resource Management Business Unit/Department at the Southern African Wildlife College.

I'm a researcher of Land Use Practices and they affect the Dominant Tree Species Diversity, Richness, Evenness, and Abundance. I have also studied how human's forest related culture and behaviors (Ethnobotany) influences tree species diversity at the local scale.

I'm a Zoologist and Completed my degree recently, want to work desperately with wildlife conservation people.
