If you like them #seaweeds, temperate Australia is the place to go! Seaweeds from all colours and sizes in this global biodiversity hotspot. At least 4 new species on every dive! #kelptickling

Ecstatic that our NSF DEB Systematics grant on rhodoliths has been recommended for funding!

Next week (Jan 16-19), the #LSUMNS will have a temporary exhibit on display, "Crude Life Portable Museum: A Citizen Art and Science Investigation of Gulf of Mexico Biodiversity after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill." Come check it out! lsu.edu/mns/news/2017/…
