Postdoctoral seaweed researcher at the Natural History Museum, London 👩🔬 Previously investigating environmental impacts of seaweed farming at the University of Exeter and the Marine Biological Association, UK 🌱🌊 🦀 she/her
This week the @nhm-london.bsky.social launched its new Fixing Our Broken Planet gallery 🌍🌏🌎
It's great to see so much science that goes on behind closed doors being accessible to the public, including our seaweed research!
Lots of great empowering suggestions for visitors to take action too 💪
In this time I've been lucky to travel to workshops in Malaysia, meetings in Kenya, conferences in Scotland and elsewhere around the UK to learn more about seaweed farming and conservation, equitable stakeholder engagement and capacity building. I can't wait to see what the next year brings!
Today marks a whole year since I started my postdoc at the @nhm-london.bsky.social! Time really has flown, but I'm glad I work right next to this 1300 year old giant Sequoia to keep things in perspective 🌲
Check out our ✨new✨ OA paper in Reviews in Aquaculture on whether the European seaweed farming industry can mitigate climate change through carbon capture ➡️➡️ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

A great few days at the Global Centre on Biodiversity for Climate symposium at @rbgkew.bsky.social
Meeting wonderful projects from around the 🌎 that also aim to sustainably manage biodiversity, increase climate change resilience and poverty alleviation.
A beautiful setting to grow new ideas! 🌸🌷🌱🪻
