Alyssa Marshell

I am a Fisheries Scientist and Team Leader at IMAS/UTAS who studies the biology, ecology, and sustainability of fish populations around Tasmania. My research combines field surveys, underwater cameras, artificial intelligence, and fish biology to understand how marine ecosystems are changing and to support sustainable fisheries management. I work closely with fishers, communities, and government agencies to ensure future generations can continue to enjoy and benefit from healthy oceans.

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.
