Hi there! Welcome.
I am an independent researcher and author.
Drawing on a core set of skills in biology, maths, and computer science, I have had adventures in many disciplines.
I am thinking about:
| remediating our impact on
nature | ||
| evidence of an
insect apocalypse in Australia | ||
| how to estimate clade phylogenetic diversity | ||
| comparative crustacean neuroanatomy |
and writing on
| natural processes and the anthropocene | |
| my love of the natural environment |
and I provide web support
| for community projects I admire |
I am
| a nature lover and bird nerd | |
| an aspiring writer | |

| a computer scientist |
I have worked as a
| a biodiversity-informatician | |
| a numerical analyst and modeller | |
| a boffin | |
| software engineer | |
| an IT specialist and manager |
I have undertaken research in
| + | systematics (taxonomy and phylogeny) |
| comparative neuroanatomy | |
| + | ethology and cognition |
| + | sensory biology and psychology |
Professionally, I have
| led research teams | |
| held research roles | |

MY NAME
Before we were married I was Garry Rogers.
My wife to be was Cynthia Jolley.
We hyphenated because it was just too good an opportunity to pass up - so we are now Cynthia and Garry Jolley-Rogers. When we met, Cynthia was working as Assistant Stage Manager on a production of Gilbert and Sullivans “Pirates of Penzance”.
Right now, I am following my own star.
| + | An acquired brain injury forced a necessary break in my career and a re-evaluation of my goals. |

These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise [@barrett2015]. Its continuing mission, to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before. We need to neutralize the homing signal. Each unit has total environmental control, gravity, temperature, atmosphere, light, in a protective field. Sensors show energy readings in your area. We had a forced chamber explosion in the resonator coil.
