🌟 The Gateway is a place to make new connections & develop deeper ones. This matters, because BIDS initiatives are designed in collaboration with domain experts across campus, our global open source communities, & BIDS data scientists & software engineers.
We are thrilled to be part of this future!
Saul Perlmutter, BIDS Founding Faculty Director, was part of the team that started the @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social course "Sense and Sensibility and Science" 13 years ago -- giving "students the tools to combat misinformation and improve their communication skills..."
📣 A great postdoc opportunity to work with @tsnow03.bsky.social at the intersection of statistics, earth science and open science!
