Master life sciences from fundamentals to advanced concepts with this comprehensive course.
Hi there,My name is Saskia, and I am a marine biologist. I completed my PhD on coral ecology at Ningaloo Reef in Australia (University of Western Australia), which kindled my love and passion for the fascinating and beautiful world of coral reefs. I have designed this course to forward my knowledge and help more people have a comprehensive understanding of coral reef ecosystems and their importance.
This course is divided into 6 parts, each ending with some multiple-choice questions allowing you to test your understanding.
