Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Borowicz is an environmental data scientist and polar ecologist with a decade of hands-on experience applying satellite remote sensing, AI, and field science to conserve whales, seals, and penguins. He has led Antarctic expeditions, run conservation data science programs, and translated research into policy and vessel-avoidance technology, combining rigorous PhD-level ecology with practical shipboard and field leadership. A Fellow of The Explorers Club now based in Washington, D.C., he bridges academic research, NGO program leadership, and operational science—having managed logistics, machine-learning annotation projects, and public outreach from zodiac boats to international media. Less obvious: his background includes skeleton articulation and station management, reflecting uncommon depth in both biological specimen work and remote-field operations.
