As always, host Bob Barrett selects an Academic Minute to air during The Best of Our Knowledge.
Each week this program examines some of the issues unique to college campuses, looks at the latest research, and invites commentary from experts and administrators from all levels of education.
For this week’s edition, he’s selected Dr. John Roe‘s Academic Minute on declining leatherback turtle populations.
Dr. John Roe is an assistant professor in the University of North Carolina at Pembroke’s Department of Biology. Dr. Roe’s main area of research focuses on how an organism’s physiology, behavior and life history traits relate to their ecology, evolution and ultimately, to their conservation. He earned his PhD in 2008 from the University of Canberra.
