This week on The Imposter we're skyping with the marvelous Otis Brunner all the way from Sweden. Otis is an alumni of Plymouth University and, at the time of the expedition, worked at the Deep Sea Conservation Research Unit(CRU)part of the Marine Biology and Ecology Research Center at Plymouth University headed by the brilliant Dr. Kerry Howell. The expedition was a collaboration between Plymouth University, University of Oxford, the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC), and the British Geologic Survey (BGS) funded by Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In this episode, we hear all about the recent marine research expedition Otis participated on with the Deep Links Project*. You'll hear about the methods of sampling, the awesome stuff they saw, what the daily routine is on a scientific expedition, and more!! I had a great time recording this episode (even if it was 5am at the time). For all you aspiring marine biologist or folks that never committed but always wanted to know what you were missing with marine biology, this one is for you!

This episode-ish of The Imposter is my scrambling attempt to put something up this week. This 12 minute ramble is a one shot, no-edit, rant about some fun science news that has come out in the last week. Think of it as a quick weekly update for a few fields of research. So why no real episode this week? While i'm not one for excuses...here's my excuse: I was too busy writing angry letters to Zack Snyder for possibly the worst execution of the Batman vs Superman storyline ever and all around just generally poorly made film.
