Saia Nahir Bartes

I am a marine biologist who recently completed a PhD at Deakin University, Australia, where I investigated the foraging ecology of Australian fur seals using biologging, stable isotope analysis and spatial ecology. My research focuses on understanding how marine predators respond to environmental change and human impacts to support evidence-based conservation. Alongside my research, I have teaching experience across several undergraduate biology and physiology units and have participated in marine fieldwork and wildlife monitoring in both Australia and Argentina.
