Science photographer to discuss 'Science on Ice'

Mar 6, 2015

Oceanographer and science photographer Chris Linder will visit Tabor Academy for the first Science at Work Lecture Series on March 30 at 6:30 p.m. in the Stroud Academic Center, 232 Front St. The community is invited to this free evening lecture.

Linder is a senior fellow with the International League of Conservation Photographers and an expedition multimedia specialist with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

For more than a decade, Linder has focused on communicating the stories of scientists working in the Arctic and Antarctic. He has documented dozens of scientific expeditions and has spent more than two years of his life exploring the polar regions.

Using images from the Adelie penguin chapter of his book “Science on Ice” and recent work in Siberia, oceanographer-turned-photographer Chris Linder will demonstrate the power of photography to inspire the next generation of scientists.
