Invasive species are among the top five drivers of biodiversity loss. On this #InternationalDayForBiologicalDiversity, #KAUST Prof. Susana Carvalho’s research is helping protect Red Sea and Arabian Gulf ecosystems through targeted marine biosecurity efforts.

Don’t miss #KAUST resident probiotic expert Prof. Raquel Peixoto Raquel Peixoto’s book review on emerging microbial technologies to improve planetary health and preserve #biodiversity.

On #WorldTurtleDay, we’re proud to highlight المؤسسة العامة للمحافظة على الشعب المرجانية | شمس at #KAUST, home to a future world-class Sea Turtle Hospital. From care to conservation, SHAMS is building global impact for sea turtle health.



For talent microbiologists and/or computational biologists students (MS and PhD level) that wants to work with me at Microbial EcoGenomics & Biotechnology Laboratory at KAUST BESE on platics degradation and mangroves, see below: admissions.kaust.edu.sa/internship/sea…


Rising temperatures in the Red Sea are placing new stress on marine ecosystems. A KAUST study led by Dr. Matthew Tietbohl (Matt Tietbohl, PhD) with Prof. Dr. Maggie Johnson links an August 2023 marine heatwave to a mass fish mortality event along the Saudi coast, affecting at least



Professor Alexandre Rosado (Alexandre Soares Rosado) has been elected as a Fellow International of The Explorers Club, the organization’s highest level of membership recognizing contributions to field-based scientific research. His work on microbial life in extreme environments spans


In less than two weeks it will be time for #AlgalBBB in Phoenix! Looking forward to seeing all of you there and proud that AzCATI will have a tour of its facilities. Happy to represent KAUST BESE & the amazing work being done at Arizona State University. Chairs Olaf Kruse and Taraka Dale



Some crabs glow to disappear. A new KAUST study shows that tiny coral-dwelling gall crabs use fluorescence as camouflage, helping them stay hidden in the reef structures they live inside. The research was led by Susanne Bähr (Susanne Bähr) with Francesca Benzoni (Francesca Benzoni),


This #WorldSeaTurtleDay, we celebrate Saudi Arabia's dedication to advancing marine science. #KAUST and Queensland Government's collaborative research in the #RedSea, using green turtle tracking, uncovered 34 new seagrass meadows, expanding known coverage by nearly 15%. #BlueCarbon
