Description

Shark Week’s Luke Tipple tackles the question “How can I work with sharks?” alongside two experts in the field – and their answers are not always the obvious ones. Luke is joined first by Kelly Link, Associate Curator of the Georgia Aquarium who talks about what it’s like to be an aquarist, how it differs from field work, and how to get yourself noticed. The second guest is Dr. Neil Hammerschlag who goes into detail on what it takes to become a prominent scientist, and what other paths you can take if a PhD isn’t for you. And at the end, researcher Sierra stops by to tell us about the world’s smallest shark.Find episode transcripts here: https://shark-weeks-daily-bite.simplecast.com/episodes/s4-ep-9-how-to-have-a-career-in-shark-scienceLuke Tipple on YouTube and InstagramDr. Neil Hammerschlag on InstagramGeorgia Aquarium on InstagramShark Week on Twitter and InstagramMore info on today’s Shark Bite can be found hereCatch Shark Week: The Podcast in Discovery’s YouTube here
