American Museum of Natural History | The Big Ocean Myth with Prosanta Chakrabarty @AmericanMuseumofNaturalHistory | Uploaded 6 years ago | Updated 4 hours ago
Ichthyologist Prosanta Chakrabarty makes the case that the oceans aren’t as vast as we think. At the Museum's Ocean Luminaries event held on March 2, 2018, he discussed the threat of pollution and how museum collections hold promise for the future of the world’s oceans. Chakrabarty is an associate professor and Curator of Ichthyology at Louisiana State University where he investigates the relationships of fishes to better understand evolutionary and geological processes.
