Tomorrow, as part of the International Conference on Basking Sharks hosted by @irishbaskingshark.bsky.social at ATU Galway, I'll be discussing the @iucnshark.bsky.social ISRA project & how it has been used to highlight important areas for Basking Sharks. 🦈

It's Ireland's Women in Sport Week! 💚

Growing up I thought I was "unsporty", but I finally realised that isn't a thing. Sports are for everyone, you just need to find the right people to play with. Happy #WIS week to my fellow tag rugby-playing women from work. Can't wait to start this season! 🏉

That's a wrap on this leg of the Irish Anglerfish & Megrim survey! 🎣 The ocean wasn't particularly kind to us, but it's always great to step away from the laptop and get back to the ocean for a bit 🌊

Hi! I'm a #marinebiologist researching data poor & rare #sharks & #rays. I'm running away from the bird app before it implodes 🙃

If I'm not posting about #elasmobranchs I'm usually spreading my love of #Irish by sharing marine themed posts as Gaeilge w/ #OceanAsGaeilge. It's fun - stick around! (:
