   personal_statement: 'Bryan Tarbox is an interdisciplinary ecologist with experience
     in conservation planning and adaptive management, prioritization modeling and
     landscape conservation design, land use/cover change dynamics, avian ecology,
     wildlife-agriculture dynamics, and human dimensions of conservation. Conservation
     in working landscapes is a common theme that ties together projects ranging
     from foraging behavior of avian insectivores in Andean silvopastures to conservation
     prioritization of Texas grass- and rangelands. Specific methodologies he has
     employed include: tree-based fuzzy logic modeling systems, The Open Standards
     for the Practice of Conservation, generalized linear mixed models using both
     frequentist and Bayesian approaches, and various other statistical, remote sensing
     and GIS techniques.He received a BS in rangeland ecology and management from
     Texas A&M University, completed his PhD at the University of Florida studying
     conservation biology, and conducted a post-doc at Texas State University focused
     on landscape conservation design and conservation planning. He is currently
     working on a variety of projects related to sage-grouse conservation efforts.'
