The Whale Museum continues its Science Lecture Series on Wednesday, July 6 at 7:00 pm with Dr. Astrid van Ginneken of the Center for Whale Research. Astrid will discuss the future viability of Southern Resident killer whales with regard to matriline structure, paternity, and effects of boats on whales.
Astrid M. van Ginneken, M.D. Ph.D., has been involved in the annual photographic Orca Survey by the Center for Whale Research since 1987. Since she became co-principal investigator in 1994, she set-up methods for collection of behavioral data and designed the Center's research database. This is Astrid's 25th year with the Southern Resident community of orcas and she still continues her field and database work with great enthusiasm.
She is the author of the orca novel “Togetherness is Our Home.”
