Science Communication

I consider science communication and public engagement to be a really important part of any scientist’s career. Thus, I’ve tried to do a substantial amount of it.

Media

Scientific or Intergovernmental Conferences

Public Speaking and Outreach

Blogs, Articles and Books

Exciting news! Yesterday I had the honour of filming Blue Planet Live with the BBC and these deep-sea beasties at @natural_history_museum. An unforgettable day with a patient, encouraging, funny and awesome team. Airing March 2019.

Flights booked! Excited to be heading back to the British Virgin Islands in March to take in some vitamin S. #sea #britishvirginislands #bvi #neckerisland #marinebiologist #ocean #marinescience #conservation #science #scicomm #exploration #research #ECR #turtle #lobster #lemur #beach #vitaminsea #diving #scubadiving

#Repost @speseas_tt ・・・ The decision made by Sandals yesterday to withdraw from the proposed project at No Man’s Land has saved the Buccoo Reef, the surrounding mangroves, and their inhabitants from an onslaught of negative impacts. Now, it is our hope that these important and beautiful sites will be given the protection and care they deserve.

Attending Nobel Week in Stockholm was inspiring, overwhelming and humbling. I am STILL pinching myself! Sharing the stage with scientific greats, including Nobel Laureates and changemakers in science and policy and also getting the chance to speak on why ‘water matters’ from a deep-sea perspective during the Nobel Dialogue was just awesome. I truly felt like the luckiest girl to have experienced all of this, and of course, attend the Nobel Concert, Ceremony and Banquet. Many thanks to family, friends and colleagues who provided advice and confidence boosting during my preparation, as well as, of course, the organisers, for extending this once-in-a-lifetime invitation. …….. This year has been a rollercoaster - I started my fellowship at the NHM, spent most of my time on a plane for work, helped my mum through treatment for breast cancer, etc. I can’t wait to get some much needed R&R during these holidays. I’m really excited to see what 2019 brings as I have a feeling it’s going to be a great year! ........ Necklace in 1st photo is proudly Trini by @akilahsjewelry .....

This has been THE craziest year but it’s ending on the highest of highs. This weekend, I’ll be attending the @nobelprize_org events in Stockholm, Sweden. Amazingly, I’ve been invited to speak about the deep sea and its weird and wonderful inhabitants (cover slide above), as well as take part in several discussion panels at Nobel Week Dialogue. I’m beyond excited but overwhelmingly terrified. No idea how or why this has happened - I am not getting a prize obviously! But yes, I get to attend the banquet and prize ceremony. FYI my ballgown is killer. Will try to post pics and stories of this crazy adventure! You can watch live too: https://www.nobelprize.org/events/nobel-week-dialogue/stockholm-2018/ #nobelprize #nobel #nobelweekdialogue #nobelweekdialogue2018 #deepsea #deepseaexploration #deepseacoral #biodiversity #Sweden #TrinidadandTobago #marinebiologist #ocean #deepseabiologist #marinescience #conservation #science #scicomm #exploration #research #ECR #mcsa #nhm #naturalhistorymuseum #howdidthishappen

Have a spare evening in London on Tuesday? Come support women in STEM for Ada Lovelace Day Live!! Ada Lovelace Day aims to increase the profile of women in STEM and, in doing so, create new role models who will encourage more girls into STEM careers and support women already working in STEM. This year’s science cabaret event in London will feature short talks or skits by epidemiologist Prof Sunetra Gupta, computer scientist Chanuki Seresinhe, palaeontologist Dr Susie Maidment, engineer Dr Hilary Costello, mathematician Prof Emma McCoy, marine scientist Dr Diva Amon, and science demo builder Natasha Simons. Last chance to get to tickets from Eventbrite! ....... #adalovelace #adalovelaceday #adalovelaceday2018 #womeninstem #stem #london #science #technology #engineering #math #marinescience #deepsea
