Xavier is an acoustician fascinated by all the things that make sound in the ocean. He is excited to be part of Pint of Science to share his passion for science and help make scientific research more accessible to the public... well, and he also likes beer! Melanie studies underwater noise and how human-generated noise impacts marine life. She jumped at the chance to join the Pint of Science team, as an opportunity to connect several key aspects of her life : science, learning, community involvement, and beer! Ed is a software engineer and astrophysicist who has built, flown, and used telescopes on the ground, suspended from balloons, and sent into space! He's looking forward to bringing the fine patrons of Victoria-area pubs together with scientists from our vibrant local research community. Heloise studies underwater acoustics and marine mammals with her research mainly focusing on Arctic pinnipeds. She is a firm believer in science and beer as a perfect chemistry; pubs taught her that scientific creativity might be on tap. David is a PhD candidate and researcher in the Computer Science department at Uvic with a focus on interaction in immersive environments for extended reality (XR). Many of his best ideas have come while having a beer or two with friends at the pub and is happy to share this experience with others. Megan is a Scientific Data Specialist at Ocean Networks Canada and excited to be involved with Pint of Science! She is passionate about science education and looking forward to learning while having a beer!
