The Centre for Energy Ethics was delighted to meet with Dr Anya Waite, Chief Executive Officer and Scientific Director, and Tracey Woodhouse, Training and Early Career Development Program Manager, from the Ocean Frontiers Institute (OFI), led by Dalhousie University, Canada. The meeting was held at University of St Andrews and hosted by Professor David Paterson, Executive Director of Marine Alliance for Science and Technology for Scotland.
Centre Director, Professor Mette High and Centre Manager Iain Brocklebank delivered a comprehensive overview of what the CEE provides, focusing on its platform for collaboration across arts, humanities, social and natural sciences. This stimulated great conversations about interdisciplinary ocean research, especially on topics such as offshore wind, wave, and tidal energy installations as well as the OFI’s Transforming Climate Action Programme, Postdoctoral and Industrial fellowships. The meeting highlighted distinct and exciting synergies between the OFI and the CEE, with potential opportunities for collaboration and facilitation between researchers based in Scotland with OFI researchers.
