New Era of Discovery:

How Technology is Revealing the Fragile Animals of the Deep

August 5 | Presented by Dr. John Burns

The ocean’s vast midwater region — between the sunny surface and the depths of the seafloor — is the largest habitat on Earth, full of exotic, yet-to-be-discovered animals.

Senior Research Scientist John Burns is part of a team dreaming up cutting-edge advances in underwater imaging, robotics, and genomic sequencing to help describe, in unprecedented detail, how gelatinous and fragile marine animals live and move through the ocean.

Set sail to learn about their most recent expedition to the South Atlantic to test out new technology that may help usher in a new era of marine exploration and species discovery.
