Special Guest Staff on board particular departures

Dr Tom Hart, Penguinologist

Dr Tom Hart, resident ZSL penguinologist (yes, that really is his job title!) travelled with us to the Antarctic Peninsula in January 2011, along with fellow scientist Dr Ben Collen. Their aim: to understand the threats to penguins and counter act them before they happen.

To find out more about Dr Hart's reseach please see the Penguin Lifelines page.

We are happy to announce Dr Hart is returning to Antarctica in 2012.
