Join Superstar of STEM Sally Hurst as we discuss how she teaches paleobiology at the Australian Museum and describes her passion for helping rural girls to get involved in STEM. Hosted by https://www.fizzicseducation.com.au/team/ben-newsome/ from https://www.fizzicseducation.com.au/ About Sally Hurst Growing up on a farm where the closest city was over an hour away made the road to STEM careers and becoming a palaeontologist a little difficult. So, after finding her passion for the past through her work experience at the National Dinosaur Museum in Canberra, Sally moved to Sydney to find a university where she could indeed study dinosaurs. Sally completed her Bachelors at Macquarie University in Palaeobiology, and Ancient Egyptian Archaeology, and is now completing her Masters of Research in Science. While learning about the past has been a highlight, Sally’s favourite job is being able to get others just as excited about science and palaeontology, this encouraged through her role as a science communicator at the Australian Museum, and as a mentor for young rural girls through various scholarship and coaching programs. Sally would love to become the passionate role model in STEM for other young girls that she never had growing up. http://www.foundafossil.com/

Software mashups for STEAM lessons with Judy Keller

What does it take to be a great scientist? What skills do you need? What is most important? We speak with Professor Kirsten Benkendorff from Southern Cross University to learn her thoughts as well as discover the work she does to protect our marine ecosystems. Hosted by https://www.fizzicseducation.com.au/team/ben-newsome/ from https://www.fizzicseducation.com.au/ About Professor Kirsten Benkendorff There’s evidence that people can be happier and healthier if they regularly eat seafood. However, we can’t produce healthy seafood if we don’t look after our estuaries and oceans. 

Kirsten is a Professor of Marine Science and loves inspiring students with my passion for marine biodiversity. She mentors students in evidence-based research and leads multi-disciplinary teams investigating the value and vulnerability of marine resources. Her research focuses on the nutritional and medicinal properties of marine species and how these are impacted by a range of environmental stressors, including climate change and pollution. To date, her research teams have produced over 150 scientific papers.
 
Kirsten works with the fisheries and aquaculture industry, government agencies, traditional owners and community groups to find solutions to environmental problems. Her contributions to science have been recognised in several awards including Young Australian of the Year for Science and Technology
and the Australian Academy of Science Dorothy Hill Award for marine and earth science. She is hoping her ongoing research will influence policies on water quality management and pesticide regulation, in order to keep our seafood safe and healthy.

She is keen to collaborate and connect with the community to share her knowledge. So, look her up if you want to learn more about marine biodiversity and what we need to do to protect it!
