Who Are We?

Helen Scales

Helen is a marine biologist based in Cambridge, which is admittedly quite a long way from the sea at the moment but then who knows, with a bit of global warming Costa del Cambridge here we come. Helen completed her PhD at Cambridge, mainly because she got to go to exotic places like Borneo to do her research on coral reefs, and she now works as a consultant for various conservation NGOs. When she's not submerged on a reef, or immersed in writing her latest book, she co-presents the Naked Scientists radio show, where she tends to talk about fish a lot. Funny that. She also writes articles for the Naked Scientists website and Geographical magazine, and when she's not behind the microphone or working to save the world's dwindling fish stocks she might be seen on the Argentine tango dance floor.
