Microbial ecologist / environmental engineer researching diverse range of microbial communities - passionate about nature conservation & sustainability
New paper led by @SharkMicrobe interrogating marine biofilms using co-occurrence networks to identify microbial inducers of coral larval settlement to help support reef restoration!
@ace_uq @UQscience@NWebster_Micro Miguel Lurgi
Ever wonder about coral larval settlement? Microbial biofilms?
Sprinkle in a little network analysis and I got a new paper for you 🪸🧬

It's an open secret that
#Scientific#publishing is a joke! 😢
If you ever need a funny explanation for a friend who is not familiar with the publish or perish game, here it is - by the brilliant "Dr Glaucomflecken"
Very excited and grateful to have received the Thomas Davies Grant from @Science_Academy to study the #microbiomes of Moreton Bay’s #mangrove forests and unravel their role in #bluecarbon sequestration. Congrats to the other awardees too!
Very grateful to @Science_Academy for the Thomas Davies Grant to study the evolutionary #genomics of thermotolerant #coral symbionts @ace_uq @UQ_SCMB BIG congratulations to all award recipients including @InkaVw also @ace_uq @UQ_SCMB!
Post-doc position at University of Queensland for computational biologist applying their skills to conservation of the Great Barrier Reef. Genuine search for someone with right to work here. Deadline 23 May. Potential to extend contract. https://t.co/O2kri2XdTs
Working with marine symbioses? 🐠🌊
Submit your abstract to our @AMSAconf symposium: "Marine microbial symbiosis: connecting current trends and future perspectives"

Interested in Archaea? Come join us at @ace_uq. We're looking for a Post-doc to join our team working on an ARC DP looking at novel Archaea that inhabit the digestive tracts of native Australian herbivores and humans. 2 year position. Apply by Feb. 2nd! https://t.co/CIvxQsYZjr
Excited to share the last chapter from my PhD recently published in Ecology! (somehow missed this original tweet while out doing field work...)
Please feel free to reach out if you'd like a copy!
A fantastic 5-yr opportunity to join us @aims_gov_au and contribute to a broad range of projects: microbial ecotoxicology, microbial inducers and probiotics to name a few. Please Retweet!
Since we’re looking to fill the position asap and Australia unfortunately is not granting new visas / opening the borders soon, the candidate would need to already be based in AUS/NZ or have existing rights to enter. @Amanda_T_Alker
Exciting opportunity for a postdoc to join our team @ace_uq, identifying microbial inducers of coral settlement within the #greatbarrierreef Reef Restoration & Adaptation Program! Collaboration with @aims_gov_au#marinemicrobialecology#metagenomics https://t.co/XueXHZhADM
The @aims_gov_au is seeking a senior scientist to lead their applied marine microbial ecology program. Having worked on the GBR in this role for the past 20 years I can attest to it being one of the most rewarding jobs in the world!! https://t.co/yHfgbIsnfg
We are recruiting a PhD student currently in Aus or NZ to work on an ARC-DP co-led by Prof Mark Morrison, @paulxevans and myself at UQ’s Diamantina Institute and @ace_uq to examine gut methanogen biodiversity in native Australian herbivores. Fully funded 3 year scholarship.
Great initiative to better understand the mangrove microbiome in order to protect these highly valuable ecosystems, especially in the face of climate change!
Introducing this amazing initiative launched by our @bmmo_network: Mangrove Microbiome Initiative (MMI), led by @ASROSADO_LEMM @gilbertjacka, Jeff Bowman and Sarah Allard. Way to go!! @mSystemsJ https://t.co/h1zFxavqbF
