About Caren Cooper
I study bird ecology and conservation through the use of citizen science. Through citizen science, people, anywhere at any time, can lend a hand in carrying out genuine scientific research.
I’m an advocate for the practices of Citizen Science, Open Science, and Science Communication, pursuing scholarly inquiry into these areas, and bringing them all together to achieve Public Science. I’m dedicated to training and mentoring students to become public scientists so they can pursue careers that weave science into the fabric of society. ********************************************************************** My book has been released.
