Polymath World # Episode 42 - Dr Kim Holland
SHARKS
Dr Kim Holland is Research Professor at the Hawai'i Institute of Marine Biology. Known as the 'Shark Lab', together with his team Dr Holland runs the sharks and predators research institute of the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa, located on Moku o Lo'e (Coconut Island), in Kane'ohe Bay on O'ahu. Holland's work specialises in the organismic and supraorganismic biology of marine organisms. Given the unique settings, they take advantage of this by blending rigorous laboratory work with well-focused field experiments to investigate the behaviour, physiology and ecology of sharks and other marine species. Dr Holland has been doing this since the 1980s and is a pioneer of small boat research and the use of tagging. Innovating this into shark research, he launched the HIMB Shark Research Group and now engages in some of the most groundbreaking tiger shark work on the planet, using acoustic and satellite tracking.
I loved our conversation and you will be gripped by his stories and explanations of this innovative conservational research effort into these magnificent and vital creatures.
