As Open Folk put it: "In These Lines is a live event where three artists each bring one song — not just to perform, but to explore. They sit down with Sofia Loporcaro, host of Before The Chorus, to talk about where the song came from, what it meant to write it, and what it still holds. Then they play it. Just the song, and the truth behind it."

Key Points: California Shark Beach Safety Program: The Shark Lab has been instrumental in developing this state-funded program in response to the increasing presence of white sharks along California beaches. The program focuses on providing lifeguards with essential information to ensure public safety while also protecting the sharks. Research and Technology: The lab has utilized advanced technologies such as acoustic telemetry, satellite telemetry, drones, and stable isotopes to monitor white shark populations and their behaviors. This research has led to significant insights into shark behavior, including their interactions with humans and their feeding patterns. Education and Outreach: The Shark Lab has implemented educational programs for lifeguards, recreational fishers, and K-12 students to improve understanding and safety regarding sharks. These initiatives aim to reduce fear and promote conservation by educating the public about shark behavior and the ecological importance of these animals. Funding Challenges: Despite the success of the Shark Lab's programs, funding has become a critical issue. The lab is currently facing budget cuts and has had to lay off staff. Dr. Lowe is actively seeking private funding to sustain and expand the lab's research and outreach efforts. Future Directions: Dr. Lowe emphasizes the importance of continued research and public education to foster a better understanding of sharks. He believes that with proper funding, the lab can answer complex questions about shark behavior and ecology that were previously thought impossible. In summary, while the Shark Lab has made significant strides in shark research and public education, its future depends on securing adequate funding to continue its vital work in conservation and community safety.

In this episode of the Beyond Jaws podcast, co-hosts Andrew Lewin and Dave Ebert interview Jasmine Corbett, the Media and Communications Manager for the Manta Trust. Jasmine shares her unique journey into the field of science communication, highlighting her passion for underwater photography and marine biology. Jasmine grew up in a creative family, initially envisioning a career in traditional photography. However, after discovering scuba diving during a gap year in Thailand, she shifted her focus to marine and natural history photography. She pursued a degree in Marine and Natural History Photography at Falmouth University, where she learned to combine her artistic skills with a passion for marine conservation. Her career began with various roles in marine conservation, including working as a dive instructor and managing marine conservation projects in the Maldives. During her time in Baa Atoll, she had a transformative experience witnessing manta rays, which deepened her commitment to their conservation. Jasmine's connection with the Manta Trust began while working as a marine biologist for Reefscapers, where she collaborated with the Manta Trust on research projects. Her photography and videography skills caught the attention of the Manta Trust's founder, leading to her current role in media and communications. In this position, she is responsible for creating compelling visual content that raises awareness about manta ray conservation and engages the public. Throughout the episode, Jasmine emphasizes the importance of visual media in science communication, noting that it can transcend language and academic barriers. She discusses the challenges of conveying complex scientific information in an accessible way, particularly when addressing serious issues like the threats faced by manta rays.
