Vicky on Podcasts
This week on Gills Talk, Kristen interviews Vicky Vásquez. Vicky is a shark biologist that is studying lost sharks. What is a lost shark? You'll have to listen to find out! We learn about how Vicky discovered a new species of shark and how much we can learn from museum curations. Kristen and Vicky also deep dive into a conversation about science communication, talking about its challenges and pay-offs.

A familiar voice returns to the show, our former co-host shark scientist Vicky Vásquez comes at us with a live report from the New Mexico Museum of Natural History. There she gets introduced to one of the best-preserved examples of ancient sharks the world has seen. In addition, our own Francis Farabaugh tells us about the SharkCon, an annual event in Florida where she gave a talk about her experiences and research.
