Marina Luccioni
 

I am a biologist and visual artist who works on projects that interface knowledge and scientific methods from local, indigenous and western academic sources. 

 

I want improve our understanding of mental health and support community-based marine management using (developing) a research process that reflects the importance of sustainability and respects the rights of indigenous people. To this end, I am proud to be part of the Nā Kai 'Ewalu Native Hawaiian subsistence fishing and stewardship collective for monitoring, studying and stewarding keystone and culturally important marine species including moi fish. In the lab I research overlaps between human and environmental health, specifically how organisms come to contain and accumulate neurotoxins, and the ways their molecules interact with human neural function to produce altered mental states. I am a PhD candidate in the Crowder and O'Connell labs at Stanford University, an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and a Knight-Hennessey Scholar

My family are from Corsica and Indonesia, and grew up in London, UK spending summers in Corsica and California. I love being outdoors, taking photos, making short experimental films and experimental food! I share curated short film lists named after cheeses on this site
