Kat Maltby
Kat Maltby is a postdoc at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute in Maine, US. Her research focuses on understanding adaptation and resilience of fisheries and their associated fishing communities facing climate change and other key challenges. As an interdisciplinary scientist she has experience of using both quantitative and qualitative methodologies to examine marine climate impacts, adaptation pathways and resilience strategies and attributes in a range of fisheries around the world. She is passionate about working with communities to co-develop solutions to complex ocean challenges. Before moving to the US, Kat obtained her PhD in fisheries science at the University of Exeter (UK) and then worked as a marine climate change scientist at the UK government’s Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science.

Juliano Palacios Abrantes
Juliano Palacios Abrantes is a Postdoctoral Associate at the Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries of the University of British Columbia. His research focuses on how climate change is shifting the distribution of marine species generating uncertain feedbacks on ecosystems and dependent human communities. He is particularly interested in how these shifts affect international shared fish stocks, threatening their sustainability and accentuating sources of conflict, ultimately highlighting the need for adaptive, collaborative, equitable and ecosystem-based management strategies. While Juliano’s research spans global to local studies, having been born in Brazil and raised in Mexico, he has a special interest in supporting marine research and governance in Latin America.

Are you an academic researcher struggling to manage your projects effectively? Do you find it challenging to keep your research on track, on time, or on to your and your supervisor’s expectations? Look no further! Join us for a one-hour webinar on project management for academics hosted by IMECaN and Dr. Carl Peters, founder-CEO of Pathfinder Academy and IMECaN member.
In Part 1, we'll provide an overview of the entire project management landscape, including the various frameworks, methodologies, and tools used to plan, execute, and control projects. We'll discuss the different types of projects and the challenges project managers face in today's complex and rapidly changing business environment.
In Part 2, we'll focus on project management for scientists. We'll introduce you to project management principles and techniques that are relevant to research projects in the scientific field. You'll learn how to plan and execute your projects effectively while managing your time and resources efficiently.
And finally, in Part 3, we'll introduce you to the Pathfinder project management framework. This lightweight and pre-tailored solution is specifically designed to help academic researchers manage their projects effectively and efficiently. We'll cover the framework's main components and features, including its adaptive nature and its game-style setup.
