Czech Science Café New York: Citizen Scientist? Everybody counts!
What is citizen science anyway? How to get involved and contribute to scientific knowledge? And how does modern technology relate to all this? The answers will be given in a lecture that will include a short workshop with a demonstration of how to get involved right away. - Researchers of the Department of Environmental Geography (Dr. Jakub Trojan, Dr. Barbora Duží, Mgr. Eva Nováková) are part of the approved Horizon Europe project "European Citizen Science". As third party partners they will be responsible for the promotion of citizen science in the Czech Republic with the ambition to institutionalise citizen science here.
- Dr. Jakub Trojan from the Department of Environmental Geography was awarded the prestigious Fulbright-Masaryk Scholarship. From September 2022 to May 2023, he will conduct his citizen science research in the Department of Geography at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he will join the Spatial Pattern Analysis & Research (SPAR) Lab team.
