Coolest paper of the year? "Copepods, the most abundant zooplankton in the oceans, imprint seawater with unique polar lipids—copepodamides—which trigger toxin production and..." advances.sciencemag.org/content/5/2/ea… "Copepods drive large-scale trait-mediated effects in marine plankton"

I have a new 'omics/bioinformatics postdoc position open in my lab at NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. The position is through the Northern Gulf Institute at Mississippi State but is based in Miami. explore.msujobs.msstate.edu/cw/en-us/job/5…

I'll never forget the giddy rush of finding sea spiders (pycnogonids) for the first time after dragging my plankton net 🤩🔬 I even managed to film one eating a tiny crustacean! 😋 #Zooplankton #SeaSpider #Pycnogonid

Heading to your local swimming hole 🏊‍♀️ this summer? Keep an eye out for harmful algal blooms (#HABs) before you canon ball! We're using science to understand how #ClimateChange might impact the occurrence of these toxic blooms: ow.ly/mZ8250PbzO4 #LakeAppreciationMonth

Hey Planktonophiles! New issue out! Lots of great Open Access & Free Access content academic.oup.com/plankt/issue/4…

Hoy la Ficología está de luto y las Ciencias del Mar han perdido a uno de sus grandes. Descanse en Paz!

Sci Hub is a "pirate" website with 88M research papers freely available. Using it is not advisable. We should all try to make billion-dollar acdemic publishers richer. Here's a thread on integrating Zotero with Sci Hub to get free articles. PLEASE DON'T DO THIS 😉

💯 Someone asked me why was I moving back to Spain after my PhD in NY, when there are so many more opportunities in science over there… I replied “If I live in NY I can’t have a coffee with my mom whenever I want”

New study reveals surprising twists in #dinoflagellate evolution! Photosynthesis lost 21 times, novel bacterially-derived histone-like proteins (HLPs) & several independent acquisitions of kleptoplastic species. Congrats @weeseamonsters & all authors! #Evolution #protists
