PhD submitted!🎉 Pic 1: June 1st 2021: day 1 of dream PhD to study multiple stressors in Norwegian orcas 🫍 & 6m pregnant baby #1 🥹 Pic 2: May 7th 2026. 2 days before PhD submission! 7.5m pregnant with baby #3 ❤️ 5 years, 3 babies, 1 PhD 😅 More PhD updates soon, inc publications & defense date!📅
🧪 Whale hormones… from less than a grain of rice A new method can measure 8 hormones (like stress & pregnancy) from tiny blubber samples, meaning more insight from every biopsy. 🐋 Stranded whales showed higher stress 🇳🇴 ONE sample can now reveal pollution, diet & health Big step for conservation
Congrats to @clareandvik.bsky.social on her first Whale Scientists infographic! Full story: whalescientists.com/a-new-method... Samples from Norwegian Orca Survey, project MULTIWHALE 🐳

Thanks for sharing our new publication! Available OPEN ACCESS 🤩🙌 Follow the link below to read
🚨New publication alert! 🚨 We have published a new method for studying steroid hormones in tiny whale samples 🐳🐋🫍 Great news for conservation - now precious samples can be used for multiple analyses 🧬 OPEN ACCESS in @conphysjournal.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/conp...
Great days at the 1st Andenes whale summit, showcasing #whale #research in #Norway. Even treated to 20 sperm whales after talks 🤩🐳 I shared #PhD results about effects of unregulated whale watching. But a great reminder of the benefits of ww when done sustainably and as a research platform 👏🐳🐋🫍
Some great days at #ECS2026 in Dundee presenting our orca research 🫍 #multiwhale @biovitenskap.bsky.social #norwegianorcasurvey But PHEW… presenting is hard at 7 months pregnant with squashed lungs & organs 😮‍💨😅 appreciate all the great feedback and interested people who found me after 🥹🫶
Key findings summarized in a popular science article on @whalescientists.bsky.social: whalescientists.com/a-new-method... This study is part of the MULTIWHALE project by RCN, collaboration with @uio.no @borga.bsky.social @biovitenskap.bsky.social NMBU, NIVA, HI, Norwegian Orca Survey

Steroid hormones are useful indicators of health and fitness in marine mammals, but measurements are often limited by sample size. This new #Toolbox article presents a new method for analysing steroid hormones in small blubber samples in four whale species. 🐋 Read it here ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conp...
