Introduction / 簡介
Dr. Marcia McNutt is a geophysicist and president of the National Academy of Sciences. She received a B.A. in physics from Colorado College and her Ph.D. in Earth sciences at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
She began her academic career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where she was the E.A. Griswold Professor of Geophysics and directed the Joint Program in Oceanography/Applied Ocean Science & Engineering, jointly offered by MIT and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Her research area is the dynamics of the upper mantle and lithosphere on geologic time scales, work that has taken her to distant continents and oceans for field observations. She is a veteran of more than a dozen deep-sea expeditions, on most of which she was chief or co-chief scientist.
Dr. McNutt served as president and chief executive officer of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI), in Moss Landing, California. During her time at MBARI, the institution became a leader in developing biological and chemical sensors for remote ocean deployment, installed the first deep-sea cabled observatory in U.S. waters, and advanced the integration of artificial intelligence into autonomous underwater vehicles for complex undersea missions.
She led a team of government scientists and engineers at BP headquarters in Houston who helped contain the oil and cap the well. She directed the flow rate technical group that estimated the rate of oil discharge during the spill’s active phase. For her contributions, she was awarded the U.S. Coast Guard’s Meritorious Service Medal.
Research interest – “Most of my current activity centers around meta science – how to shape the culture and conduct of science to build trust, excellence, inclusiveness, and integrity.”

Dr. Marcia McNutt是地球物理學家，也是美國國家科學院院長。在科羅拉多學院獲得物理學學士學位，並於斯克里普斯海洋研究所獲得地球科學博士學位。
她在麻省理工學院開啟了學術生涯，當時為EA Griswold的地球物理學教授，並指導由麻省理工學院和伍茲霍爾海洋研究所聯合提供的海洋學/應用海洋科學與工程聯合項目。她的研究領域是地質年代表上地函和岩石圈的動態變化，這項工作使她前往遙遠的各大洲和海洋進行實地研究。她擁有豐富的深海探險經驗，其中大部分是她擔任首席或聯合首席科學家。
Dr. McNutt曾擔任位於加州莫斯蘭丁的蒙特利灣水族館研究所 (MBARI) 的主席兼執行長。在MBARI任職期間，該機構成為開發生物和化學感測器於遠程海洋運用的領先者，在美國海域安裝了第一個深海有線觀測站，並推進了人工智慧與自主水下載具的整合，以執行複雜的海底任務。
她曾在英國石油公司休士頓總部帶領了一支由政府科學家和工程師組成的團隊，協助控製石油並封鎖油井。她所指揮的流量技術小組負責估計洩漏活動階段的漏油流量。她也因此貢獻而被授予美國海岸巡防隊軍功獎章。
研究興趣：Dr. McNutt目前大部分的主要活動都圍繞著後設科學——如何建立科學的文化和組織方式，以建立信任、卓越、包容和正直。
