Café Sci - "Nimble Science: Fueling Discovery with Independence and Ingenuity"

When Bigelow Laboratory was founded in 1974, it brought together a team of researchers with diverse interests, perspectives, and approaches - all united in a shared commitment to independent and creative science. Over the last 50 years, this unique approach has helped Bigelow Laboratory attract some of the best minds from around the world and transform itself from a scrappy startup to a state-of-the-art, world-renowned research institution. Come listen to Senior Research Scientist Emeritus Barney Balch tell the exciting story of this transformation and discuss how the Bigelow Laboratory model continues to advance ocean science today.
