“Challenges of an Aquatic Biologist" with Pamela Schaller, Sr. Biologist & Penguin Curator

The Marin Science Seminar is a one-hour lecture/presentation with a question and answer period targeted at high school students in the San Rafael High School district, but open to all interested Marin teenagers and their families.

As an aquatic biologist at the California Academy of Sciences’ Steinhart Aquarium, Pamela Schaller is part of a team which cares for more than 38,000 live animals.  Schaller serves as the primary biologist for the Academy’s charismatic colony of endangered African penguins. She is also responsible for the husbandry of an array of species, including blacktip and whitetip reef sharks, alligator gars, and dog-faced fruit bats.  Come meet Pam and learn about what an aquatic biologist does for a living.  Join us and learn!
