[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Félicie Dhellemmes (she/her) Date: 28 June 2023. Position: Post-Doc. Research and/or work interests: Behavioral ecology, movement ecology, individual differences in behavior, foraging. How did you become interested in open research? I became interested in ORT research practices pretty early on when it became evident to me that if we wanted the public to trust science (in the context of climate, for example), science had to be exemplary and as trustworthy as possible.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Saeed Shafiei Sabet Date: 8 December 2022. Position: Research Fellow. Research and/or work interests: Animal behavior, Anthropogenic noise, predator-prey interactions, noise impacts, wildlife, anti-predator behavior, fish, crustaceans. How did you become interested in open research? To be able to share our findings and behavioral observations in a more clear and available way. What is an open/reliable/transparent science practice that you admire but have not yet adopted in your own work?

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Malgorzata (Losia) Lagisz Date: 30 June 2023. Position: Research Fellow. Research and/or work interests: I am a biologist with research experience and skills in different fields of science. I often venture outside biological topics and data, for example, into biomedical, environmental, conservation, or even social sciences. In my research, I use research synthesis methods, such as systematic reviews/maps and meta-analyses.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Gabe Winter (they/any) Date: 2 June 2023. Position: PhD candidate at Friedrich-Schiller University Jena, Germany. Research and/or work interests: I am an ecologist, currently working with intra-individual variability in behaviour, but also super excited about open, transparent and reproducible research and data science. What ‘ORT’ practice have you introduced into your research practice that you’ve found really helpful?

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Erlend B. Nilsen. Date: 9 July 2021. Position: Senior researcher / Professor. Research and/or work interests: I’m an applied quantitative ecologist, working mainly with bird and mammal populations. I’m particularly interested in human impacts (such as climate change, harvest, and land use patterns) on these species' populations, including distribution, abundance demography, and life history traits. To address these challenges, we statistical analyses of empirical dat and simulation of studies.

SORTEE two-year anniversary: our members’ voices

By SORTEE in blog

December 2, 2022

Between June and September 2021, we started the #SORTEEvoices blog series by asking inaugural members to choose a few questions to answer from a list of 30 options (15 questions about open science, reproducibility, and transparency; 15 miscellaneous questions)1. Responses from sixty-four inaugural members were posted on our blog every week until October 2022. To celebrate SORTEE’s 2-year anniversary in December 2022, we’d like to look back and summarise our members' voices.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Alfredo Sánchez-Tójar. Date: 06 September 2021. Position: Principal Investigator. Research and/or work interests: I’m an evolutionary ecologist with a soft spot for birds and a great interest in evidence synthesis, meta-research and open science. How did you become interested in open research? I became interested in open research during my PhD and mostly as the result of multiple failed replication attempts of a textbook example in behavioural ecology, the badge of status or signalling status hypothesis in house sparrows.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Owen Petchey. Date: 19 July 2021. Research and/or work interests: Ecological responses to environmental change. How did you become interested in open research? Some years ago I was particularly interested in a published research report that included the data. I wanted to know more about how the quantitative analyses were done. So I downloaded the data, and set about reproducing the analyses.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: David Wilkinson. Date: 18 July 2021. Position: Postdoctoral Research Fellow. Research and/or work interests: Joint species distribution modelling; occupancy modelling; computational reproducibility; version control; code/data sharing practices. How did you become interested in open research? It wasn’t really the “open research” concept directly that first interested me, but as a primarily methods-based quantitative ecologist it was code and data sharing that made my PhD research possible, and from there I got into other practices.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: William Gearty. Date: 13 July 2021. Position: Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Research and/or work interests: The degree to which species diversify taxonomically and functionally varies dramatically across time, space, and the tree of life. This ultimately has resulted in the vast diversity and disparity that we see on Earth today. Numerous physiological, ecological, and environmental conditions have been implicated as the causes for this variation.
