3 NOV 2020 · In this episode we were joined by Alex Smalley to talk about his role as science communicator and his PhD work on digital natural environments and how these can play a part in psychological restoration.
17 MAY 2020 · This episode was recorded back in early 2019. Ben talks to Lauren Henly, Emma Weschke and Tim Gordon, who are all masters by research or PhD students in Prof. Steve Simpson's research group (you might remember Steve from an earlier episode, Coral Reef Bioacoustics Part I). The discussion focuses around the research they're all undertaking, what got them interested in marine biology, and what they have done so far.

20 APR 2020 · Professor Lora Fleming talks to us about her career and introduces us to the European Centre for Environment and Human Health (ECEHH), of which she is Director. We cover a variety of topics including how interacting with natural environment impacts our health, interdisciplinary approaches in tackling research, plus introductions to various projects running at the ECEHH.
6 APR 2020 · Tim Gordon talks to us about bioacoustics on coral reefs covering a variety of topics including the importance of soundscapes for marine animals, the effects of noise pollution on fish orientation andthe uses and types of sound underwater.
30 MAR 2020 · Professor Steve Simpson speaks to us about his marine work discussing a number of areas, including how underwater organisms hear, how he creates underwater soundscapes and the applications of these in science and conservation.
13 JAN 2020 · Tom Horton chats to us about Atlantic bluefin tuna and their presence in our UK waters. We talk about the work he has been conducting as part of Thunnus UK and also touch on what it takes to become a marine biologist.
15 APR 2019 · In this episode we're joined by Flora and Daniel to discuss Sail Against Plastic, a multidisciplinary sailing expedition to the Arctic. We previously spoke to the team in an earlier episode prior to their departure. Several months have passed since then and we're finding out what they found.
17 MAR 2019 · Tom Horton speaks to Ethan Wrigglesworth about Thunnus UK, a project studying Atlantic bluefin tuna in UK waters.
"It’s probably one of the most exciting things you can actually do is physically retrieving (a tracking tag) that’s been on a tunafish for 360-odd days and plugging it in and hopefully getting the data off it. It’s absolutely fascinating."
