Thanks Benjamin!

For working with jellies, I mostly study their development and evolution. There are lots of options for jelly work. There are aquarists who work primarily with jellies, researchers who work with plankton (including jellies) at various government positions, and being a scientist at a university or institution. The last route is the one I took, but I think the other two would also be lots of fun! If there is an aquarium near you, you might also try reaching out to their volunteer program. I hope that’s helpful!

Beautifully written (especially the description in the first paragraph) and informative of an issue I wasn’t aware of previously.

As an aside, I’ve wanted to work with jellyfish since I became interested in zoology, so would you mind telling me a little about your work, like what specific aspects of cnidarians you study and how you get to work in such a position?
