Flinders University Talks
June 29 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm ACST
Dive into an afternoon of fascinating marine and coastal science with Flinders University as part of Winter Whale Fest.
This free public event features three short, engaging presentations by leading researchers, followed by a Q&A panel.
Program:
Prof. Charlie Huveneers – “Shark Attacks: Is the Number of Shark Bites Increasing and How Can We Reduce Risk?”
A/Prof. Luciana Möller – “Should I Stay or Should I Go? Movements of Southern Right Whales in Southern Australia”
Prof. Sabine Dittmann – “What Worms Can Tell You About the State of the Coorong”
This session offers something for everyone — from the curious to the conservation-minded — with stories of local whales, changing coastlines, and the science that helps us understand and protect these precious environments.
Bonus: Stay on afterward and enjoy the Kondoli Lantern Parade (5:00pm–8:00pm), making it a full afternoon and evening of discovery, culture, and community celebration.
