Denise L Herzing

Denise L. Herzing is the founder and Research Director of the Wild Dolphin Project, a project to study the natural behaviors and communication of Atlantic spotted dolphins in the wild.

Her ultimate aim is to achieve two-way communication with dolphins. She hopes to use a wearable underwater computer to record and make dolphin sounds. The computer aims to create synthesized dolphin sounds that can be established between sound and object, so the hope is for dolphins to imitate the sound in order to make requests from people.
