Congratulations Cornell Marine Mass Mortality Laboratory 🏳️‍🌈!

🌊🦠 Excited to share our latest findings on Diadema antillarum scuticociliatosis! Our research reveals how sympatric habitats serve as reservoirs for the pathogenic ciliate. We also explore possibilities for resurgence and associated microbes. int-res.com/abstracts/meps…

Excited to announce the publication of our latest work on the Diadema scuticociliatosis pathogen. Here we examined its presence in environmental reservoirs, finding that it is primarily associated with the coral Siderastrea spp int-res.com/abstracts/meps…

We also examined its recruitment to corals in aquaria, its potential for reemergence into naive diadema and its presence in coral specimens and the water column prior to the DaSc outbreak. Excellent collaboration between multiple institutions and countries!

Cornell’s College of Veterinary Medicine is searching for multiple TT faculty in Microbiology and Immunology. Come join us! apps.hr.cornell.edu/recruiting/fac…

Excited and grateful, earlier this month I started my INTERN Fellowship, allowing me to spend the next three months working on elucidating relationships of bacteria and coral at the USGS - Honolulu Field Station under the mentorship of Dr. Thierry Works and his amazing team!

doi.org/10.1002/lob.10… I was asked to write this based on a town hall at a recent meeting. Apologies but the journal wanted $3200 for open access and I just couldn’t afford. Lmk if you’d like to see it.

Funded postdoc + PhD opportunities in marine microbial ecology! Please share with folks that might be interested. Start date is flexible (fall 2025 to summer 2026) More about the lab + applying (Postdoc rolling, PhD apps due Oct/Jan): sites.google.com/uncc.edu/micro…

Lots and lots of traffic today about Sea Star Wasting in Florida. This probably isn’t the same thing as in the Pacific, but speaks to the fact that there is no case definition, and that it’s very non specific and describes when stars fall apart. See frontiersin.org/journals/marin…
