Great to see a few other EEB applicants this year on Gradcafe. Would love to hear more about all of your research interests, background and graduate programs you've applied to!
Personally, I grew up in the US but undertook my undergrad studies at UQ in Aus. My predominant interests surround tropical ecology and conservation biology with a focus on integrating and advancing sampling methods (especially with camera trapping survey designs) towards understanding the functional roles of under-represented mammals (small, arboreal, cryptic).
I received one offer from NAU's T3 eco-informatics program, but awaiting responses from the other universities (Yale EEB, Washington SEFS, Rice EEB, Harvard OEB, Duke UPE, Hawaii Manoa Zoology, UC Berkeley Integrative Bio).
Cheers
