Where Marine Science Meets Conservation

Support Research

Our Impact

Real science. Real impact. Powered by you.

At The Salty Lab, every project turns science into action. We study bonnethead sharks, monitor red tide, and map coastal nurseries to generate data that guides real conservation decisions. We transform that research into education through NGSS and Florida-aligned lesson kits, classroom programs, and story-driven books that make marine biology accessible and inspiring.

Beyond the lab, we connect people to the ocean through outreach, from SharkCon to school assemblies, uniting scientists, students, and communities in a shared mission to protect our blue planet.

At The Salty Lab, we turn ocean science into action. Through hands-on research, education, and storytelling, we empower people to understand and protect our seas.

Every project connects fieldwork to real-world impact, from classrooms and communities to the policies that shape our coasts.

When you support The Salty Lab, you help science move beyond data to drive lasting conservation and change.
