She/Her
Geraldine Fernandez
Research Assistant/Previous Honours Student
I’m a recent Dal grad with a bachelor of Science in the Marine Biology honours program with a minor in Statistics. I've been absolutely fascinated by the ocean from a very young age and have poured all my energy (and still am!) into becoming a shark biologist.
This summer, my time with the FOME Lab will focus on collecting more data for the advancement of a new method of shark monitoring using BRUVS with laser scaling, under the supervision of Dr. Derek Tittensor and Dr. Manuel Dureuil.
I am especially interested in developing ethical methods for elasmobranch data collection and creating strategies to support and sustain global elasmobranch biodiversity!
