Our coral reefs are in serious danger of eradication. Mary believes that our understanding of climate change and use fossil fuels has to change in order for us to save marine species such as coral.
Mary Hagedorn is a physiologist who has pioneered many state-of-the-art techniques that may help save our coral reefs. Dr. Hagedorn has developed a conservation program for coral species, using cryobiology, the understanding of cellular systems under cold conditions, and cryopreservation, the freezing of sperm and embryos. In this approach, the embryos and sperm are frozen and placed into liquid nitrogen where they remain frozen, but alive for decades in a genetic bank.
