Headline: From palaeontology to spongiology: mastering the dinosaur of the ocean
From an early age, Fenna Beets was determined to become a scientist. “At five years of age it was the role of a ‘dinosaur scientist’ that had my attention, followed by the captivating occupation of ‘volcano scientist’.” This Friday, Fenna fulfils that long-held goal, graduating from the University of Waikato in Tauranga with a Master of Science in Research. But it’s not as a palaeontologist or a volcanologist, but a marine scientist/spongiologist.
