The flexibility and creativity offered by working in a nonprofit environment allowed her to explore new research avenues, particularly in deep-sea fisheries. Throughout her journey, Ivy's commitment to hands-on experience has been a driving force in her career. Her internships and practical roles have not only provided her with essential skills but have also shaped her understanding of marine biology and shark research. As she pursued her Ph.D. at the University of Exeter while working full-time, Ivy's ability to integrate her research with her professional responsibilities further underscores the importance of experiential learning in marine science. Her story serves as an inspiring example for aspiring marine biologists, emphasizing that hands-on experience is crucial for success in this dynamic and ever-evolving field. The Journey of Dr. Ivy Barrymore in Marine Science Dr. Ivy Barrymore's journey in marine science is a fascinating tale of passion, perseverance, and adaptability. Her story begins with a childhood fascination with marine biology, sparked during family vacations to Dauphin Island, Alabama. Despite growing up landlocked in Arkansas, her love for the ocean deepened when her family moved to Hawaii during her sophomore year of high school. This significant transition not only exposed her to the marine environment but also solidified her desire to pursue a career in marine biology. Education and Early Career Ivy's academic path led her to Florida State University, where she pursued a Bachelor of Science degree. During her undergraduate studies, she interned at the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), which became a pivotal experience in her career. This internship allowed her to work on a project involving mackerel and otoliths, providing her with hands-on experience in marine research. After graduating, she continued her journey with NMFS, where she worked for several years before returning to graduate school to obtain her Master's degree at the University of Florida, focusing on the angel shark. Her master's research was particularly noteworthy as it addressed a significant gap in knowledge regarding the angel shark, a species listed as prohibited due to insufficient data on its population status. This project not only contributed valuable data to NMFS but also set the stage for her future endeavors in marine science. Transition to Belize and Mar Alliance After nearly a decade of working with NMFS, Ivy faced a crossroads in her career. Despite her extensive experience, she found herself in a position with limited opportunities for advancement. This prompted her to explore new avenues, leading her to a job opportunity with Mar Alliance in Belize, a nonprofit organization focused on marine conservation. The decision to move to Belize was not without its challenges, especially as she had just gotten married. However, the prospect of working in a dynamic environment where she could apply her skills to new and exciting problems was too enticing to pass up. In Belize, Ivy quickly adapted to the challenges of conducting research in a remote location, gaining invaluable experience in logistics and fieldwork. Pursuing a PhD While working with Mar Alliance, Ivy also pursued her Ph.D. at the University of Exeter. This unique opportunity allowed her to continue her work in marine science while advancing her education. The structure of the Ph.D. program in the UK, which did not require her to be on campus full-time, was particularly beneficial for her situation. She was able to balance her responsibilities as a researcher and a mother while completing her doctoral studies. Ivy's research during her Ph.D. focused on deep-sea fisheries, an area that had previously been underexplored in Belize. Her work not only contributed to the scientific community's understanding of these fisheries but also aligned with Mar Alliance's mission to promote sustainable fishing practices and marine conservation. Conclusion Dr. Ivy Barrymore's journey in marine science exemplifies the importance of adaptability and seizing opportunities. From her early fascination with the ocean to her impactful research in Belize, Ivy's career is a testament to the diverse paths one can take in the field of marine biology. Her story serves as an inspiration for aspiring marine scientists, highlighting that with determination and the right opportunities, one can make significant contributions to the understanding and conservation of our oceans. Pursuing a Ph.D. can be a strategic career move, particularly when it aligns with one's professional goals and offers flexibility in managing work and personal life. This is exemplified by Dr. Ivy Barrymore's experience as she undertook her part-time Ph.D. while working at Mar Alliance. Alignment with Professional Goals Ivy's decision to pursue a Ph.D. was not made lightly; it was a calculated step toward advancing her career. After spending over a decade working with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), she reached a point where there were limited opportunities for advancement. Despite her extensive experience and a master's degree, Ivy found herself in a position where her title and pay did not reflect her qualifications. This realization prompted her to explore options that would allow her to grow professionally.

As a working professional, she was able to continue her role at Mar Alliance while pursuing her degree. This arrangement allowed her to maintain a steady income and job security, which is particularly important for someone with a family. Ivy mentioned that she had a five-year-old son during her Ph.D. journey, and the ability to work full-time while studying part-time was essential for balancing her responsibilities as a mother and a professional. The structure of the Ph.D. program at the University of Exeter also contributed to this flexibility. Unlike traditional U.S. Ph.D. programs that often require students to be on campus and take courses, Ivy's program allowed her to conduct her research remotely. This meant she could manage her time effectively, focusing on her studies when it suited her schedule, without the need to relocate or disrupt her family life. Conclusion Ivy's experience illustrates that pursuing a Ph.D. can be a strategic career move when it is thoughtfully aligned with professional aspirations and personal circumstances. By choosing a part-time program that complemented her work at Mar Alliance, she was able to enhance her qualifications while continuing to contribute to meaningful research in marine biology. This approach not only advanced her career but also provided the necessary flexibility to balance her personal life, making her Ph.D. journey a successful and enriching experience.

The differences between Ph.D. programs in the U.S. and the U.K. can significantly impact a student's experience, particularly for those already in the workforce. The U.K. system offers more flexibility, allowing students to balance work and academic commitments more effectively. Key Differences Course Requirements: In the U.S., Ph.D. programs typically require students to complete a set number of courses before they can begin their research. This often includes qualifying exams and comprehensive exams, which can extend the time spent in the program. Conversely, the U.K. system does not have a formal requirement for coursework if the student already holds a master's degree. This allows students to focus primarily on their research from the outset. Funding and Assistantships: U.S. Ph.D. students often receive funding through teaching or research assistantships, which cover tuition and provide a stipend. This financial support is crucial for many students, especially those who may not have the means to pay for their education upfront. In the U.K., while there are opportunities for funding, many students may need to pay tuition out of pocket. Scholarships may be available, but the financial model can be less supportive compared to the U.S. system. Duration and Structure: U.S. Ph.D. programs typically last around five to seven years, with a significant portion dedicated to coursework before research begins. This can be a lengthy commitment for someone who is already working. U.K. Ph.D. programs are generally shorter, often taking three to four years, and they allow for part-time study. This structure is particularly beneficial for individuals who wish to continue working while pursuing their degree. Research Focus: In the U.S., the path to a Ph.D. often involves a broad exploration of the field before narrowing down to a specific research topic. This can be beneficial for students who are still determining their specific interests. The U.K. system encourages students to define their research focus early on, which can lead to a more streamlined and efficient process. This is advantageous for those who already have a clear idea of their research interests and want to integrate their work experience with their academic pursuits. Impact on Students For individuals like Dr. Ivy Barrymore, who transitioned from a career in marine biology to pursuing a Ph.D. while working with Mar Alliance, the U.K. system provided the flexibility needed to manage both responsibilities. She was able to conduct her research in Belize while completing her Ph.D. part-time at the University of Exeter. This arrangement allowed her to leverage her professional experience and apply it directly to her academic work, creating a cohesive narrative for her thesis. In summary, the U.K. Ph.D. system's flexibility, reduced course requirements, and shorter duration make it an attractive option for working professionals. This structure enables students to balance their academic and professional lives more effectively, ultimately enhancing their educational experience and career development.

On the surface, everything looks perfect. But one night, Dani vanishes after a boat party, and Sawyer has no memory of her disappearance.The search for Dani is initially fueled by concerns that she drowned during one of her daily ocean swims, but Dani's prescheduled video posts, recorded before she went missing, soon reveal a darker side to her relationship with Sawyer. Meanwhile, Royal Bahamas Police Force Inspector Veronique Knowles has her hands full trying to keep the investigation on course as the story of the American woman missing in the Bahamas goes viral and the internet sleuths unearth secrets from Sawyer's past.

A fire in Christchurch's Port Hills on a dry breezy day had residents hoping they weren't in for a repeat of the disasterous 2017 blazes. And it raises questions about whether we need to be on high-alert this fire season. At least four fire crews and three helicopters managed to contain today's blaze in just over an hour, but State Highway 76 between the city and Lyttelton closed to allow firefighters to carry out their work. The fire is now contained but earlier in the afternoon several locals told our reporter Rachel Graham they were getting ready to move. New Zealand's in for an El Nino summer. In the past that's meant stronger or more frequent winds from the west, causing drier conditions.
