#Molluscs2024 features keynote speaker Kerry Walton, mollusc curator at Te Papa Tongarewa. Kerry oversees huge collections while researching biodiversity, conservation, genetics, taxonomy, and ecology, from land to deep-sea! See more on molluscs2024.com.au/keynote-speake…

This is not pretty but I will not apologise for the data. Suck up the discomfort. When is enough enough? Analysis made possible with #FAIR data and #openscience. Drone mapping images by @JezRoff and Joan Li via @GeoNadirAu

We're heartbroken to share that Kim Juniper passed away last Friday. In addition to serving as Chief Scientist for ONC, Juniper was a professor in @UVicSEOS and Biology. He will be sorely missed by our community.

We honor ONC's Chief Scientist Kim Juniper, who changed the way we view and approach ocean science. His legacy of integrating Indigenous knowledge in ocean monitoring continues to inspire the scientific community. Please read ONC's farewell to Kim Juniper.

With great sadness, ONC's friends and colleagues are paying tribute to our beloved Chief Scientist, Dr. S. Kim Juniper, who passed away on Friday, June 7, 2024. Read more about Juniper's contributions and legacy: oceannetworks.ca/news-and-stori…
