ARBIMON has announced a new upgrade! Go explore the free and open ecoacoustic analysis platform, now revamped to better serve the scientific and conservation communities. 🦾🌏 🌐 arbimon.org #arbimon #bioacoustics #wildliferesearch #wildlifeconservation #ai #acousticanalysis #newwebsite #launch #newlook #conservation #biodiversity #biodiversitymonitoring #bioacoustics

We're pleased to introduce Lyuboslava D., joining us to work on ARBIMON as a Software Developer! 🌟 Fun fact: "I'm a wildlife artist at heart (long before I was a software engineer or an ecologist!)." 🗯 Why she joined RFCx: "I've always wanted to combine my technical skills and my ecology and conservation background and use them for a good cause. As a researcher, I've seen firsthand how chaotic data analysis can get, so it's great to be working on a tool that makes researchers' lives easier. I also believe in the huge potential of acoustic research for biodiversity monitoring and conservation and am proud to be joining a team that helps drive the field of bioacoustics forward. I also happened to be reading Tom Mustill's brilliant book about bioacoustics "How to Speak Whale" at the time I was talking to Antony Harfield (RFCx's CTO), so that might have nudged me in the right direction too (happy accidents, haha!)." 🤝 What she hopes to accomplish with us: "I hope to help further improve the Arbimon system, both from a user's and a technical perspective. I like writing readable, maintainable, and easily extensible code and solving technical challenges using best practices. I also hope to assist the data science and research team in any way I can, bringing my machine learning and data science experience to the table. And last but not least, I'd like to spread the word and help more people discover the efficiency of incorporating Arbimon into their research projects." SO thrilled to have you on the team and excited to see what we can accomplish together! 💚 #newhire #purposedriven #conservation #biodiversity #wildlifeconservation #rfcx #arbimon
