Happy Polar Pride!
This year I'd like to draw attention to @500qs.bsky.social - an awesome campaign for making LGBTQ+ people in STEM more visible!
Coincidentally, happy to have played a part making Arctic Pride happen here in Tromsø last week 🏳️🌈 #polarpride #LGBTQinSTEM #DiversityInPolarScience
Happy #PolarPride!
Visibility and diversity are so important 🏳️🌈✨
I’m proud to be in a field that celebrates the LGBTQ+ community 🌈🧪🐋 #LGBTQinSTEM #DiversityInPolarScience
Supervisors who invest in positive mentoring relationships with their PhD candidates also reap the benefits for their own research

Reporting from #IBAC2025: where marine mammal fan art meets bioacoustics — all on one very Pinterest-board-worthy poster 🐬 🎙️ 🐋
Morning cold plunges keeping me afloat through this marathon week 🌊
We have vastly underestimated the sophistication and capacity of plants.
How little we understand of the #biodiversity that we are fast trashing

Shoutout to the visuals for making the science pop! The design really pulled everything together nicely ✨
Huge congrats to Laela and the Sarasota Dolphin Research team for their win! Fascinating work, and I’m honoured to be using their dolphin whistle data for my PhD🐬🧪
Arctic samples, global impact ❄️🌍
And colleagues as cool as the area they study 🧊
Congratulations to the winners of Nature’s 2025 #ScientistAtWork photo competition. The overall winner is a photo of biologist Audun Rikardsen, taken by his PhD student Emma Vogel, scanning the waters for whales near fishing trawlers in the fjords of northern Norway. 🧵 #SciArt #Academicsky 🧪
Shoutout to all PhD students out there — “Finish on Time” by Åsa Burman is the doctoral version of a survival guide!
(spoiler alert: by shifting the focus to how we work)
Anyone down to start a book club to chat about each chapter — a bit of collective academic therapy?
🎙️ 🐋 🎧 Eavesdropping on whale showdowns -- Sperm whales are stressed, orcas are mean, and the section @marinemammalsau.bsky.social is all ears for the juicy underwater drama ✨💅🏼
Great #ECSconference2025 preview talk and fantastic visualisation by @emilytgriffiths.com presenting Mel Cosentino’s work!
This week, our researchers are preparing for fieldwork in Sarasota Bay, Florida, to collect acoustic data on bottlenose dolphins 🐬. While prepping the equipment, students from our Acoustic Ecology Lab took part in DTAGs tracking training. They were happy to see how their data is collected! 🔊🌊
My first PhD birthday in DK yesterday: a Danish tradition here @marinemammalsau.bsky.social with a flag at my office door, making my workload all festive 🇩🇰 🎊
The Marine Mammal Research Group @au.dk is finally making waves online! 🌊 Thrilled to be part of this fantastic team 🐋🐬🦭
Excited to have contributed to this study where we tracked 29 sperm whales in the North Atlantic! 🐳
Some traveled nearly 8000km and dove deeper then 1000m! 🛰️🌊 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
This is one of my favorite photos taken during this fieldwork of a 🐳 diving under the midnight sun 🌞
I've started a marine mammal reseachers starter pack. It focuses on researchers and labs studying marine mammals. Feel free to ask to be added :) go.bsky.app/MWiR9uS
Please add me, thanks! :)
