Julia MacDonald

I am a Fulbright Scholar from the U.S. obtaining my Masters degree in Marine and Antarctic Science from IMAS. I specialize in governance to learn about how the ocean is governed as an international resource. In my second year, I will complete a research project and hope to research disease ecology and seabirds.

About the BEAKER STREET ROVING SCIENTIST PROGRAM

Each August, hundreds of Roving Scientists descend upon Hobart, filling up pubs and chatting to strangers as part of Beaker Street Festival. Discover a new world down the lens of microscope, and joining the least-boring bar conversations you’ve ever heard and these free (the chats – not the drinks) events.

For Scientists, Beaker Street’s Roving Scientist Program offers an excellent outreach, professional development, and networking opportunity. It’s the nerdiest and funnest way to share your research with the public, expand your network, and be inspired by leaders in all sectors of science and science communication.
