About

Stephanie is a Sêr Cymru Fellow whose research and project team focuses on understanding impacts of infrastructure such as roads and dams on rivers and fish species, as well as people’s relationships with these ecosystems. Her research links with communities to identify and map this infrastructure, as well as to build engagement and enrichment projects about rivers with people of diverse ages. More about the project team’s research and engagement can be found on the Freshwater Interdisciplinary Research and Engagement website: firelaboratory.uk, and website for young people: firelabkids.uk.
