22 - Student Research Spotlight: Don’t overthink it, start talking to people


Listen Later

The Student Research Spotlight Series is back for 2026, and we are welcoming a NEW HOST: Dane Lazarus!


For this episode, Dane Lazarus and Deb Fernandes chat with Liam McDermott (Virginia Tech) and Ruben Vruggink (UC Santa Cruz) about undergraduate research in probabilistic coastal hazard assessment (PCHA) and about an A-to-Z master's project on regional sediment management, bringing science, stakeholders, economics, and policy into the same conversation. Plus a lot of other cool stuff you’ll have to listen to find out ;)


Get involved:

  • ASBPA SNP Mentor Program: join as a mentor or mentee via the ASBPA website

  • California listeners: if you’re interested in building a stronger West Coast student / early professional network, reach out to Dane or Ruben, or email [email protected]

Thank you to our sponsor, the New Jersey Sea Grant.
