275 - Outdoor Adventures and Larval Fish Ecology with Bridgette Nicolosi

The Fisheries Podcast

This week Kadie catches up with Bridgette Nicolosi, a master's student at Georgia Southern University. Bridgette's research focuses primarily on larval fish ecology—an often overlooked yet critical area of fisheries research. She has experience across diverse ecosystems, from the cold mountain streams of the West to the Piedmont of the Carolinas and now the coastal plains of the Southeast, she is deeply committed to protecting fish species and the ecosystems they inhabit. Her passion for aquatic conservation drives both their academic and fieldwork, aiming to shed light on the vital role of larval fish in sustaining healthy fisheries and ecosystems. Outside of work, Bridgette is an avid nature enthusiast who finds inspiration in the outdoors. Whether hiking, camping, or crafting unique jewelry from flowers found along the way Bridgette immerses herself in the outdoors, finding balance and creativity in the environment she strives to protect.

If you'd like to get in touch with Bridgette you can find her on Instagram @bnicolosi or email her at [e-mail].
