its great that you’ve found our blog and can use the information in your project. What I think is very cool is that this is not older information or photos from a book – but something that only happened very recently. So… you’re getting access to very up-to-the-minute information!

Good luck with your project – work hard! Go whales!

Dr Kemper is the world authority on pygmy right whale biology and ecology
Dr Rommel specialises in functional anatomy
Prof Fordyce is looking at evolution and systematics (looking at the modern whale to better understand the ancestral whales)
Dr Reidenberg specializes in comparative anatomy of the respiratory tract. She is examining this very unusual specimen to get a better understanding of adaptation in mammals to aquatic life.

That seems really interesting – how long do you think it will take to do the necropsy?

Alsop do you all have different areas of expertise and interests?

Cheers
Lucy
