So what actually is FMRI, why does it matter now, and how can a very diverse community work together to create and then get behind a single vision? 

Join ocean scientist and broadcaster Dr Helen Czerski as she sits down with: 

• Leigh Storey, the senior responsible owner for FMRI
• Professor Sir Ian Boyd, polar scientist and former Chief Scientific Advisor for DEFRA and member of the FMRI board
• Professor Catherine Heymans, Astronomer Royal for Scotland

Together, they lay out the landscape for the FMRI project, discuss the big picture opportunities and challenges, and try to understand what ocean researchers could learn from how the space sciences achieve similar large funding goals.
