Juliet Saul
Master's student
Zoology
University of Otago
My primary focus has always been centered around restoring ecosystem health in Aotearoa. I love that isotopes can help us answer an assortment of questions regarding the wider ecosystem and the species that live within it. My masters will concentrate on using isotopes as biochemical tracers for predatory species.

Samuel Clough
PhD candidate
Environmental Science
Auckland University of Technology
My PhD work is concerned with the dietary niches of multiple sympatric species of deep-sea flying squids. By incorporating stable isotope analysis of their beaks with DNA barcoding and gut content analysis, I will provide a robust understanding of how these niches change over their life cycles.

Environmental Science & Marine Science
Auckland University of Technology & Cawthron Institute
I'm interrested in ways of combining scientific methods to answer ecological questions. My PhD research aims to understand where the fascinating Aotearoa New Zealand eels migrate in the ocean by using stable isotope analysis and environmental DNA.

Blake Harper
Master's student
Zoology & Freshwater Ecology
University of Otago
I am interested in freshwater ecology and conducting research to uncover unknown questions in this area. My master's research aims to uncover the aquatic interactions between trout and sockeye salmon in a lake system by using stable isotopes and Environmental DNA.

Saskia Foreman
PhD student
Marine Science
University of Otago
I am fascinated by the intricate dynamics of estuarine ecology, focusing on how multiple stressors such as microplastics and nutrient run-off impact these complex environments. My research delves into nutrient cycling, utilizing fatty acids and stable isotopes to unravel the complex interactions within marine ecosystems.
