Victoria (Vicki) Martin
Cornell Lab of Ornithology Rose Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Ithaca, NY, USA
* I am an environmental social scientist and am interested in how we can use social research, including social psychology, to improve volunteer/participant recruitment and retention in citizen science.
* My recently completed PhD investigated how effective marine citizen science might be as a tool for science communication in Australia.
* At CSA2017, I will be presenting the results of international research conducted with colleagues in Europe and the US for the Wilson Center, Washington DC, on data and metadata standardization issues in citizen science.
* Following this conference, I am thrilled to be joining the postdocs at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to continue social research in citizen science.
