11: How to Make It in Marine Science (w/ Rose Santana)
1h 7m | Jan 12, 2022Guys. Rose Santana (@scie.co on IG) is such a boss! She’s super smart and knows more about marine pollution that I would ever care to know. This interview is fairly science heavy, but stick with us - it is a discussion worth having!
We get into some great topics such as:
- Why collaboration is key in both science and ecotourism
- Tips for grad school
- The importance of mentorships
- How to get more funding for conservation
- Why diversity is invaluable in science
- Why climate change IS a social justice issue
- And so much more!
Bottom line: Conservation needs funds! It doesn’t matter how you get it! (Well, I mean, yes I know there are ways to get funds that are pretty unethical…so it does matter…but just listen to the episode, ok?!)
