Sharks, Science, and Storytelling with Guido Leurs


Listen Later

Shark Conservation drives today’s conversation with Guido Leurs, a marine scientist whose research spans multiple shark species and explores how we connect with them through images and media. Guido shares his unique career path, from his early fascination to postdoctoral work, and how visual storytelling has played a critical role in understanding and protecting these misunderstood predators.

Marine Science Communication is at the heart of Guido’s journey. This episode covers the evolution of his work, from science diving and species identification to the broader social and ecological impacts of shark conservation. You’ll also hear personal insights into the challenges of navigating academic paths, building a meaningful research career, and inspiring people to care about sharks through compelling imagery and communication.
