Let’s Begin…
In the deepest, darkest parts of the oceans are ecosystems with more diversity than a tropical rainforest. Taking us on a voyage into the ocean -- from the deepest trenches to the remains of the Titanic -- marine biologist David Gallo explores the wonder and beauty of marine life.
Gallo begins his talk by observing that in some ways, he’s an unlikely candidate to have earned a PhD in science, because he had ADHD and struggled in school. Yet the ocean, he says, is the one thing that grabbed and held his attention. What grabs your attention in science class (if anything)? What makes science an exciting topic to study, and/or how could science classes be improved, in your opinion?
