I'm so excited to announce that my department is now hiring TWO ECOLOGISTS at the Assistant Professor Level. We will be really excited to substantially expand research in ecology in our EEOB Department at UCR. Please RT aprecruit.ucr.edu/JPF01983

Discovery of deep-sea coral symbionts from a novel clade of marine bacteria with severely reduced genomes nature.com/articles/s4146…

In a 🆕 policy memo, Nonresident Fellow @ansgar_baums and @thomasramge of Einstein Center Digital Future propose a solution to the world's challenge of obtaining cheap green technology which looks to address #China and its overcapacity, and global decarbonization. stimson.org/2024/are-tarif…

Corals in the wider Caribbean are experiencing a second consecutive year of record-setting heat stress. 😞 Reports of mass bleaching from the USVI, Belize, and Saint Maarten came in last week. 🥵 Report any observations of bleaching at: coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite/rese… Coral Reef Watch

My department at UMass Boston is searching for an Assistant Professor in marine ecology or evolutionary biology. Check out the ad here: jobs.sciencecareers.org/job/661946/ass…. Please feel free to email or DM with any questions, and RT!

Scientists in the US and Germany have found two unusual bacterial species in the tissue of deep-sea corals. The coral symbionts have a tiny genome and lack the ability to obtain energy from carbohydrates. the-microbiologist.com/news/deep-sea-… Lehigh University Penn State Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology Universität Kiel CAU 🎓

Our scientists Nicole Dubilier & Harald Gruber-Vodicka Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology contributed to this wonderful study revealing the discovery of previously unknown #deepsea coral #symbionts with extremely small #genomes 🪸🦠🌊 out now Nature Communications by Iliana Baums nature.com/articles/s4146…

The recent coral population crashes in the Caribbean have made one thing clear: we urgently need to focus on managing corals at the species level. But how can we do this without adequate tools? To plan coral restoration in a way that maximizes success, a team of researchers
