This Gills Talk episode is all about “The Shark Lady”, Dr. Eugenie Clark. A pioneer in shark science, and a role model to many. She was an ichthyologist with a special interest in sharks and tropical sand fishes. She has conducted 71 submersible dives as deep as 12,000 feet and over 200 field research expeditions to the Red Sea, Caribbean, Mexico, Japan, Palau, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Thailand, Indonesia, and Borneo. With her death in 2015, she still continues to inspire women in science. Listen to our newest episode to learn about her work and to hear from some members of our Gills Club Science Team on how Eugenie inspired them.
Information about Dr. Eugenie Clark is credited to her Gills Club feature and Mote Marine Laboratory.
