I am a marine biologist, writer and broadcaster based in Cambridge, UK which is a very long way from the sea...
Please explore my website for details of my experience and interests.

I am currently available for science and natural history broadcasts and publications covering broad topics of biological sciences and specialising in marine science, conservation and environmental issues.

Latest in Sept 2008...
Following my summer spent in France and cycling across the Indian Himalayas I am now back in Cambridge editing my book about seahorses in preparation for its release in October 2009. You can catch me on BBC Radio4's Home Planet on Tues Sept 8th at 3pm or listen again anytime on the radio 4 website.

For my PhD from Cambridge University I specialised in tropical marine conservation and the international trade in live coral reef fish, in particular a beautiful big fish called the Napoleon or humphead wrasse. Following my PhD I've worked for various conservation organisations including English Nature (now Natural England), the World Conservation Union (IUCN) and TRAFFIC International.

I have 7 years experience in writing and broadcasting science. I regularly write for National Geographic News, I'm a panel member on BBC Radio 4’s Home Planet programme and regular presenter on The Naked Scientists on BBC Radio in eastern England and am currently writing a popular non-fiction book about seahorses.

And in case of any confusion, my maiden name is Hendry.
