Hello!



The School for the Environment Graduate Student Anti-Racism Task Force  
(SEGART) would like to invite you to our third  OCEAN Speaker event.



OCEAN is a webinar series dedicated to amplifying early career Black,  
Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) marine researchers and  
professionals in New England funded by Woods Hole Sea Grant. Over the  
past three decades, the racial and ethnic composition of advanced  
marine sciences degree holders, tenured faculty in geosciences, and  
leadership in environmental organizations has changed very little.  
This stagnation is credited to myriad barriers, such as systemics  
biases in gender and economics and the paucity of the school-to-career  
pipelines for BIPOC in the sciences. With COVID-19 exacerbating these  
barriers, we must act in a timely and urgent manner to support BIPOC  
marine researchers and professionals in advancing their careers.



The objective of the webinar series is to create a platform for  
early-career BIPOC researchers and professionals to share their  
research and engage with a community of students, faculty and  
researchers in the marine sciences.

We are thrilled to welcome of our third speaker, André Price, who will  
be giving a seminar talk on Wednesday, April 7th at 4 PM EST at the  
SFE departmental seminar. André is a Quantitative Modeler at National  
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). He is currently  
creating models for decision-makers and managers to prevent Right  
Whale entanglements in fishing nets.

If you are an undergraduate at UMass Boston, join André?s ?Meet the  
Speaker? event on April 9th at 3 PM EST to learn more about his  
research and academic pathway to NOAA!
