Excellent talk at #17DSBS by @georgeimatsumoto.bsky.social outlining MBARI’s research internship! So often we see predatory internships & positions in conservation requiring skilled work for free because it’s ’good experience’. Great to see an institution leading the way in equitable internships! 👏🏼

It was another frosty day in Edinburgh, and I was excited to share insights with 4th year undergrads in my first guest lecture on the deep-sea and the complex issues around deep-sea mining.
Sharing knowledge is vital to shaping informed policies and engaging stakeholders to protect the deep sea 🌊❤️

Helpful guide to identifying large whales at sea. Blue whales have very small dorsal fins very far back, and more U-shaped heads when seen from above; and uniformly dark undersides
