Dr Casey Zakroff (@CaseyZakroff) is a marine biologist with a love for cephalopods - otherwise known as squids and other weird and wonderful ocean-dwelling creatures. In this episode, we talk about his research on squids facing the challenges of climate change, and also the challenges of science communication. Check out video footage of the adorable squids he worked with here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCOY1qnkNLc
Casey did his PhD in the Mooney lab at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (https://www.whoi.edu/profile/amooney/) and is now in between jobs, but in the meantime is producing a great podcast where comedy improv meets science, called Thunk Tink (give it a listen here: https://curiopoda.com/), as well as working on a graphic novel.
