Breakthrough alert! 🚨First in situ experiment using coral probiotics shows probiotic uptake by corals and no detectable off-target effects. Check this massive field effort out! https://t.co/qkIn2Fod0g @KAUST_News @aeon_collective @CORDAP_ @ICRI_Coral_Reef @CoralVitaReefs

#KAUST Professor of Marine Science @peixotors might just have the answer…

A fascinating first talk from our esteemed faculty member at this year’s #COP28, putting forward a potential “solutions toolbox” to save corals.

#KAUST Professor Raquel S. Peixoto @peixotors wants the world to know we need to put microbes at the center of climate solutions and policy; read more in a @Nature Microbiology feature @COP28_UAE.

🚨cool data alert! Here we wanted to assess enrichment and putative effects of coral probiotics to the environment. Results are great!! Stay tuned for the effects of probiotics on coral health during the 2023 bleaching event :-) Coming out soon! https://t.co/XGvS0vuYSz

Today I could see the effects of the incredibly strong bleaching event that hit the Red Sea…it was gut wrenching…
Hopefully these beauty will recover and thrive again in this reef ❤️
There is hope but we need to act now!

Why are microbes important for corals? 🪸

On #InternationalMicroorganismDay we speak to @InesRaimundo_ from @MMicrobiomesLab about how probiotics could help buy us some time in the fight #ForCoral 🪸

[Marine Microbiomes Lab @MMicrobiomesLab]

Rising temperatures are expected to cause the 3rd global mass bleaching event in less than 10 years. Help us to collect valuable information on resistant coral colonies 🪸 Please report on https://t.co/RelxS8L57a and share it! @peixotors

This is why short-term band-aids, e.g., #coralprobiotics are urgent; to retain corals (at least some) while they exist/permanent solutions/CO2mitigation take place. What until then? We just watch? So sad 🥺
