Steven Bedard is the co-founder and editor of听bioGraphic听magazine, an editorially independent publication about nature, conservation, and solutions to the biodiversity crisis. He has spent the past 25 years writing and producing science stories and content on topics ranging from astrophysics and archaeology to genetics, evolution, and public health. But as a former field biologist who once studied bird populations in the Intermountain West, he is most at ease with and inspired by issues and solutions that affect ecosystems and biodiversity.

Since starting听bioGraphic听in 2016, Steven and his colleagues have been intent on covering stories about environmental issues and solutions from around the world. Yet, no matter how in-depth those articles may have been, they regularly revealed a disconnect. Too often stories in all forms of media focus on global-scale phenomena like climate change or urbanization, but don鈥檛 explore how individual animals are responding or might respond to these larger, systems-scale disturbances鈥攈ow they perceive the world, how they behave, where and how they are moving in this increasingly altered world.

During his fellowship year, Steven will explore the challenging divide between systems-scale science and organismal biology, and look for ways to bridge this gap so that we all might better understand the connection between the organisms we see in our own worlds and the much larger changes affecting our planet. He hopes that this understanding will help in our efforts to manage ecosystems and wildlife populations as they are today, and to anticipate the changes that are yet to come

Previously, her work at The Miami Herald exposed how cruise companies kept workers trapped at sea without pay during the COVID-19 pandemic and spurred long-awaited investment in pollution reduction technology at the world鈥檚 largest cruise port.

As a Ted Scripps fellow, Taylor will research how U.S. car dependence is impacting lithium-rich communities in South听America as the transportation sector electrifies.
