Hi everyone, I'm Stephanie, a marine science PhD student. I'm glad you can join me here at the Salty Science Podcast as I practice my public speaking skills and translating my science in a way that everyone (especially those outside the science community) can enjoy! I also really enjoy tea, so let's get "nerd-tea" together! :D If you have a marine science topic or tea you'd like me to discuss, shoot me a message at saltysciencepodcast@gmail.com.
