In this episode of Ocean Pod, Dr Nina Wootton and Professor Bronwyn Gillanders take listeners on a journey to one of the most iconic places in marine science - the Galápagos Islands.

Bronwyn has just returned from a trip to the islands, scouting potential study tours alongside students and supervisors from James Cook University. She shares her experiences in the field, from the unique wildlife encounters to the challenges and opportunities of learning in such a remote, world-famous location.

Nina and Bronwyn also reflect on the importance of the Galápagos for conservation and marine research, and what makes it such an inspiring place for the next generation of scientists.
