Graduate student opportunity in Integrated Marine Fisheries Lab at Oregon State University:  The successful candidate will be responsible for conducting scientific research on groundfish and related taxa in the North Pacific Ocean. One objective of this position is to improve our understanding about ecological drivers of habitat use by a suite of prey species that are not effectively sampled by standardized surveys. The student will use long-term and spatially-expansive ecological data collected by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA) to construct spatiotemporal models that examine relationships between species distributions and their environments in the Gulf of Alaska. Student-led research will involve synthesizing relevant scientific literature, identifying robust methods for data analyses, presenting results to varied audiences (e.g., via public meetings, scientific conferences, peer-reviewed publications), and working with agency scientists to generate management-relevant products. If seeking a PhD, the student will work with Dr. Cheryl Barnes to identify additional research questions related to climate impacts on important fish stocks.

Bruce Briggs Memorial Scholarship: The International Plant Propagators’ Society (IPPS) Western Region awards the Bruce Briggs Memorial Scholarship to deserving students in agriculture and horticulture educational programs.

This scholarship is given each year to college and/or university students who are studying plant propagation and demonstrate a strong interest in pursuing propagation or production as a career. The scholarship pays for students to attend the annual International Plant Propagators’ Society meeting held in the Western Region. Both the registration fee (includes most meals) and shared accommodations are covered by the scholarship. Travel costs are the responsibility of the scholarship recipient.  The meeting will be held at the Holiday Inn in Wilsonville, Oregon from January 24-27, 2023.  

The annual meeting gives the students the opportunity to hear presentations on various areas of plant production and network with industry professionals. A tour of nursery facilities and affiliated businesses is an integral part of the scheduled activities. An added benefit of the award is a one-year student membership to IPPS. Previous scholarship recipients are not eligible for a second scholarship. 

The deadline to apply for the Bruce Briggs Memorial Scholarship is October 15th, 2022.  More information about IPPS and an application form can be downloaded from the IPPS website at: BBM Scholarship Application.
