U-Alexis Valauri-Orton

U-Alexis wajoyina i-TOF ngo-2016 lapho ayephethe khona izinhlelo nemisebenzi. Njengamanje uhola i-Ocean Science Equity Initiative kanye nezinhlelo ezisungulwe futhi eziphethwe ngaphambilini ezihlobene nokumaketha komphakathi kanye nokushintsha kokuziphatha. Esimweni sakhe njengomphathi we-Ocean Science Equity, uhola izinkundla zokucobelelana ngolwazi zamazwe ngamazwe zososayensi, abenzi bezinqubomgomo, kanye nabasebenzi bomkhakha wezilwane zasolwandle, athuthukise amasistimu angabizi kakhulu okusabela ekuguqulweni kwe-asidi olwandle, futhi alawule isu leminyaka eminingi lokuvumela amazwe emhlabeni wonke ukuba akhulume nolwandle. i-acidification. Njengamanje usebenza kwi-International Experts Group on Ocean Acidification.

Ngaphambi kokujoyina i-TOF u-Alexis ubesebenzela uhlelo lwe-Fish Forever e-Rare, kanye nezinhlelo zokufaka i-asidi olwandle e-Ocean Conservancy kanye ne-Global Ocean Health. Uneziqu ze-magna cum laude ezihlonishwayo ku-Biology and Environmental Studies azithola e-Davidson College futhi waklonyeliswa nge-Thomas J. Watson Fellowship ukuze afunde ukuthi ukufakwa kwe-acid olwandle kungase kuyithinte kanjani imiphakathi encike olwandle eNorway, Hong Kong, Thailand, New Zealand, the Cook Iziqhingi, kanye nePeru. Ugqamise ucwaningo lwakhe phakathi nalokhu kuhlanganyela njengesikhulumi somhlangano wonke ku-Inaugural Our Ocean Conference eWashington, DC. Ngaphambilini ushicilele umsebenzi we-toxicology yamaselula kanye nokwakhiwa kwekharikhulamu. Ngale kolwandle, olunye uthando luka-Alexis umculo: udlala umtshingo, upiyano, futhi uyacula futhi uya njalo futhi uyadlala emakhonsathini azungeze idolobha.
