SHARK RESEARCH

The Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science has been home base for a myriad of research efforts since its conception in the 1940s, but one in particular is gaining national attention for its air-time on Discovery Channel’s 30th annual Shark Week. Led by alumnus Neil Hammerschlag, Ph.D. '10, the Shark Research & Conservation Program (SRC) conducts research on the ocean's most enigmatic predators.
