Corals and Jellyfish and other Cnidarians, Oh My!

Mariana is a coral biologist at the renowned Gates Lab in Hawai\\u2019i. She didn\\u2019t originally set out to study corals, however. Hailing from Brazil, Mariana grew up about an hour from the ocean, her interest in the natural world piqued by her biologist mother. After completing her undergrad in Brazil, Mariana moved to France to complete her master\\u2019s degree where she studied the Golden Medusa jellyfish. In this episode, we learn the art of reaching out, how traveling the world can shape your career, the secret life of cnidarians, and how YOU can help our oceans, everyday, no matter where you live.
