The first episode of Beyond the Horizon, the ANERIS podcast exploring marine biodiversity, innovative monitoring technologies, research infrastructures, and citizen science, is now available!

Following the launch of the podcast, we are excited to introduce our first guest, Christos Arvanitidis from LifeWatch ERIC, who talks about bridging data, AI, and marine biodiversity.

In this episode, Christos shares his journey from marine taxonomy to digital research infrastructures and discusses how these technologies are transforming biodiversity and ecosystem research. The conversation also explores open science, FAIR data principles, scientific reproducibility, and how LifeWatch ERIC and ANERIS are preparing marine observation tools for the growing role of artificial intelligence in research.
