Hi, we are looking to fill an open postdoc position to work with ShareTrait, a platform to compile animal trait data and make openly accessible (See add attached). Is it possible to communicate this position to OTN members through an emaillist or so, or advertise on the OTN website?

Kind regards, Jacintha Ellers j.ellers@vu.nl

Hi @jellers1 - thanks for sharing! Do you have the text associated with the position? If so, we could turn this issue into an announcement, and let search engines and open trait members see it. Just an idea. What do you think?

Hi @jhpoelen and @jellers1 We can share it on X/Twitter or other platforms. There is a Twitter account. I think @bmaitner has access to it.

Dear Jorrit and Mohammad, Thanks for responing so quickly. It would be great if we could turn it into an announcement so that all Open trait members can see it. We would like to target this specific audience rather that a general Twitter message, in order to get a more focused reponse. I have a pdf or ppt (see attached), not a plain text. Would that work?

Best, Jacintha
