About me

marine science
ecology
fisheries
science communication
environment

I am a marine ecologist and passionate advocate for accessible science (see website and Google Scholar for more details).

My current research projects include:

Using biominerals and geochemical tools (e.g. isotopes) to unlock the biological histories of aquatic animals
Identifying better methods to track the provenance of seafood and combat seafood fraud
Understanding the fisheries biology and ecology of octopus to support their sustainable management

I also investigate how to boost the readability and readership of what scientists write, particularly peer-reviewed publications. My goal is to not only boost public engagement in science, but also boost collaboration... Read more
