The science team will be led by researcher and university lecturer at the University of Auckland (New Zealand), Dr. Alice Della Penna (Ali). Ali holds a Ph.D. in Marine Science and Oceanography and has worked at the interface between physical and biological oceanography for the past ten years. Having worked in scientific laboratories, universities, and onboard research vessels in four countries, Ali values the vibrant and enriching environment that a diverse group of people creates. With experience in conducting cutting edge science, teaching and mentoring a diverse array of students, and engaging in public outreach, our science team is passionate about conducting science that directly benefits the local community and encourages our passengers to gain an appreciation for science and our marine ecosystems.
