This month, we welcomed our new Science Advisor, Gary Marston, to our team here at Wild Steelheaders United. Gary’s strong expertise on the effects of fisheries and hatcheries on wild steelhead populations; his familiarity with the challenges, both scientific and political, that fishery managers confront in managing steelhead; and his outstanding relationships with scientists in federal and state agencies have proven him to already be an impact player, diving into the many issues we’re working on in his first few weeks.
Utilizing sound science to conserve wild steelhead populations and support sustainable fisheries has been central to Gary’s career. This is also at the foundation of our work here at WSU, so we couldn’t be more excited to have him join our team.
We caught up with Gary earlier this week to answer a few questions for our ‘Meet The Team’ series.
