My role is to manage the research and lab facilities in our ecology department including general lab support, training and inductions of ecology staff, and lab health & safety.  I run our research aquarium where I am responsible for animal welfare & husbandry and assist with the design and maintenance of experiments as well as ensuring the day-to-day functioning of our equipment and systems alongside our engineer and aquarist team. I have particular expertise with cuttlefish husbandry and breeding as well as having an interest in photography and filming.
