Jaida Elcock - "Failure is a part of success"

Jaida Elcock is a PhD student in the MIT-WHOI Joint Program. She is particularly interested in the movement ecology of migratory elasmobranchs, as this information is still unknown for many species. Jaida is also a co-founder of MISS (Minorities In Shark Sciences) where she is the Director of Public Relations. Kristen and Jaida talk about her PhD work and Jaida's love for science communication.
