The Center for Engagement in Science and Nature at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology provides meaningful opportunities for the public to participate in collaborative scientific research to improve the scientific understanding of birds through collective observation and environmental stewardship. The Engagement Center creatively uses the power of the internet to build science-based conservation communities to tackle the complex issues of how to study and address environmental problems and their impacts on birds. Further, the Center studies the process of involving the public in scientific research, coupling the ecological and social sciences to better understand how to engage the public in meaningful scientific research. Project goals involve varying blends of research, education and outreach. Project FeederWatch is a showcase participatory science program demonstrating how to successfully engage the public in scientific research. With more than 30,000 participants annually, a strong record of scientific publications, and a self-supporting revenue stream, Project FeederWatch is one of the leading participatory science programs globally. We are looking for a dynamic and visionary leader. Full details.
