Elena Conser is a third year PhD student in the Plankton Ecology Lab within the Department of Integrative Biology. She really, really, loves plankton – marine organisms that are unable to swim against the current and are thus, at the whim and mercy of their environment. To study plankton, Elena employs a cutting-edge technology imaging system to view plankton in their natural environment, something that has not previously been possible in her field. (Disclaimer: this episode was recorded with a backup system so the audio quality is somewhat below the usual). Hosted by Matt Vaughan and Joseph Valencia.
