Jonathan Growcott
My interests lie in the utilisation of technology for ecological and conservation practices. Previously, I completed my MBiol (Hons) in Biosciences at Durham University where I analysed acoustic data collected from autonomous recording units. For my PhD, I am now combining multiple remote data capture technologies (specifically camera traps and bioacoustic microphones) to automatically monitor species populations in African savannah ecosystems, with a particular focus on lions. This will involve both extensive fieldwork in Africa and desk-based computational work to develop AI models.
