 MIT/WHOI graduate student Stacy DeRuiter never gave up on her goal to
build a D-tag for harbor porpoises. Her project with fellow graduate
student Alexander Bahr exemplified the fruitful collaborations that can
occur between scientists and engineers, each bringing different
perspectives to solving a problem. “Students help catalyze the magic
between scientists and engineers,” said DeRuiter’s advisor, WHOI
biologist Peter Tyack.
