Caroline Campbell, Research Associate
Caroline is our British representative. Since joining the team, she has been primarily researching, writing, and designing. Caroline's background as zoologist/photographer and BBC science radio/television producer has given her the ideal blend of skills to take up her creative and challenging role within Sea Studios. Her last BBC documentary, 'Global Dimming', recently won the highly acclaimed Wildscreen 2006 Earth Sciences award. It was at the same festival in 2005 that she first met Mark Shelley over a pint of local cider.
