Prem is a PhD candidate leading the Seals from Space: the study of Antarctic pack-ice seals by remote sensing priority project with the Scott Polar Research Institute (SPRI), British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
Outside of this, Prem is heavily interested in increasing opportunities for under-represented groups, such as Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) and working-class persons, to enter non-typical fields (e.g. polar and conservation science) at leading institutes. As part of this, Prem has founded Polar Impact, a network to support, connect and highlight ethnic minorities in polar research.
In addition, through Prem's role as British Antarctic Survey's ECR Diversity Champion he is working with the Foreign Office to develop a Diversity in Antarctic Science Strategy to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Antarctica's discovery.
