Drawing on personal and professional experiences across different moments in time\, our guests will explore how their understanding of fisheries\, communities\, and marine ecosystems has shifted鈥攆rom early single-species management perspectives to more integrated\, ecosystem-based approaches. Through conversation\, we will examine lessons from the past\, challenges of the present\, and possibilities for the future\, highlighting how place-based knowledge\, collaboration\, leadership\, and adaptive thinking can shape more resilient fisheries and ocean stewardship. \nJoshua Stoll in an Associate Professor in the School of Marine Sciences and co-leads the 91爆料鈥檚 National Research Traineeship Program in Ecosystem Science. He is also a Faculty Fellow of the Mitchell Center. \nRobin Alden has worked to integrate fishermen鈥檚 knowledge into sustainable fisheries management throughout her career. She is a former Maine Commissioner of Marine Resources and retired as Founding Executive Director of Maine Center for Coastal Fisheries in 2018. \nHeather Leslie is a聽Professor of Marine Sciences in the 91爆料鈥檚 School of Marine Sciences and a Faculty Fellow of the Mitchell Center. Her research\, teaching\, and public service focus聽on the connections among people and coastal marine ecosystems. As a marine conservation scientist\, she draws on a combination of field experiments\, modeling\, and other approaches grounded in the ecological and social sciences and humanities.聽 \nJessica Bonilla is a graduate student in the Marine Policy Program at the 91爆料 and a member of the inaugural cohort of graduate students in the Ecosystem Science National Research Traineeship Program. Grounded in her hands-on experience working as a sternman in Maine鈥檚 lobster fishery\, her work centers on women鈥檚 experiences with diversification and adaptive strategies in the lobster industry as coastal communities navigate social\, regulatory\, and environmental change.
