Abstract

The Ecological Dissertations in the Aquatic Sciences (Eco-DAS, pronounced “eco-days”) symposium connects freshly minted Ph.D.s in the aquatic sciences with the aims of facilitating networking, collaboration, and interdisciplinary cross-talk. This exercise is intertwined with training discussions on team leadership, career paths, proposal writing and submissions, and funding strategies and opportunities.
