I’m a coral reproduction biologist!! I spend most days caring for corals in our lab or going SCUBA diving to monitor in the field. I also work through the night during spawning season, collect gametes, and then we basically create new coral

Not many know this because there’s no dive tourism, but the Persian Gulf is full of coral — not just any coral, but heat-tolerant genotypes biologists use in reef restoration. It’s home to over 700 fish species and the world’s second largest population of dugongs. Say a prayer.

University of Miami ad is about a girl who goes there and becomes a marine biologist, look I get that you’re marketing to kids but children need to learn that “marine biologists” are not real
