For 25 years, HRI has been applying science that makes a difference - from restoring habitats to shaping policy and protecting Gulf communities.

What started as Ed Harte's vision has become a powerhouse for change, led by passionate scientists and leaders who go beyond the lab to turn research into action.

On this edition of Gulf Stream Shorts we hear from current and former HRI leaders on HRI's impact and what's next.

As we continue to celebrate HRI's 25th Anniversary, we sit down with three influential voices in Gulf conservation and fisheries management to explore the power of collaboration with the Harte Research Institute (HRI) in this edition of The Gulf Stream Podcast Shorts.

Our guests—Pat Murray (President, Coastal Conservation Association), Robin Riechers (Director of Coastal Fisheries, Texas Parks and Wildlife), and Kiersten Stanzel (Executive Director, Coastal Bend Bays & Estuaries Program) — reflect on how collaborations with HRI have strengthened their missions, expanded opportunities, and created lasting impacts in the Gulf and beyond.

At Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi and the Harte Research Institute, learning goes far beyond the classroom, and research thrives well beyond the lab — flourishing in the field and across the coast.

As HRI marks its 25th anniversary, this is the first in a series of Gulf Stream Shorts videos that celebrate the people and discoveries that have defined HRI's legacy and continue to shape the future of coastal and marine science.

We hope you enjoy them and look for more as the year progresses!
