Michelle-María Early-Capistrán

Summary

I am a cultural anthropologist by training, but I am currently a PhD candidate in Ocean Sciences and Limnology at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). I aim to understand long-term interactions between humans and marine ecosystems in the Mexican Pacific and the Gulf of California through the quantification of fishers' memory, by integrating ethnographic research, historiography and mathematical modelling.

I am currently an associate director of the Next Generation Sonoran Desert Researchers (www.nextgensd.com), and in this role I strive to promote transdisciplinary research and contribute to the connection between science and society.
