Skink Photo Identification Volunteer role

Current PhD research at the Institute of Zoology focuses on skink species recovery and planning in New Zealand.

For this project, we are using photographic identification of individual skinks to enable us to make estimates about their population. We are using AI software to match images of skinks to known individuals, which requires a human observer to format images and make final decisions on matches.

We are in search of volunteers to help process this data, picking up where the AI software reaches its limits. We would like volunteers to be available to start in this role in January 2025. 

Location: Desk-based at Regent's Park, London and/or home-based.
