Dr. Erika Woolsey, The Hydrous , and the role of virtual reality in reef conservation

American Shoreline Podcast Network - A podcast by The American Shoreline Podcast Network

Coral reef ecologist, National Geographic Explorer, Co-Founder of the Hydrous, and Teaching Fellow at the Stanford d.school, and the Stanford Center for Ocean Solutions, meet Dr. Erika Woolsey, one of the most-forward thinking guests we've ever had on the American Shoreline Podcast.  On this episode, Peter and Tyler explore Erika's wide-ranging work as a scientist, designer and innovator, including her non-profit -- called the Hydrous -- that focuses on harnessing innovative VR technology to create immersive, beautiful visualizations, and 3D photogrammetry to engage the public on important ocean conservation issues.
