  4. My employer ( @oistedu.bsky.social ) is opening a special grad student application round for students currently studying at US universities.

    The application period begins now and is only two weeks, but if accepted you may be able to start already in September.

  5. FYI, if you happen to be a scientist in a large English-speaking country with uncertain future research financing; my employer, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) is looking for grad students, postdocs and PIs.

    It's a research institute, so no undergraduates, and the working language is English - no japanese required. And its located on a (semi) tropical island in the Pacific.

  10. The progression, causes and effects of climate change have been measured by everything from multimillion-dollar satellites to the humble thermometer, but increasingly scientists — including a team in Okinawa — are turning to sound. japantimes.co.jp/environment/2 #environment #wildlife #okinawa #climatechange #oist #animals #forests #tech #birds
