Abstract
Niv Froman is a marine biologist, PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge, Principal Researcher at the Manta Trust, and Director of Manta Expeditions. With over a decade of experience in the Maldives, Niv’s work focuses on the reproductive ecology, physiology, and behavior of mobulid rays. He uses cutting-edge techniques like ultrasonography and stereo-video photogrammetry to study wild populations and inform conservation strategies. His passion for manta rays began with firsthand encounters in the field and has since evolved into a career dedicated to their research and protection.
