Why Is Alana Alexander Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Alana Alexander is a New Zealand bioinformatician at the University of Otago. In 2021, she was awarded a Rutherford Discovery Fellowship to investigate the past impacts of fisheries on Hector's and Māui dolphins, and use genomics to inform models of the future effects of climate change on whales and dolphins.
