Our coral researchers published a new paper on the ecological relevance and reproducibility of rapid heat stress tests on corals, establishing guidelines for their use in identifying heat-tolerant corals for research and restoration #CBASS#CoralReports https://t.co/jVWOBCRwav
Happy first day of fall semester @DukeU! We are so thrilled to have @EmmacJohnson32 join the Wong Lab at the @DukeMarineLab! Emma joins us as a Duke Centennial Graduate and Professional fellow AND as an @NSF Graduate Research fellow. Welcome, Emma!
I am excited to share that I will be starting a PhD in Marine Science & Conservation at @DukeU@DukeMarineLab in the @JulietMWong Lab as a @NSF Graduate Research Fellow! Thank you to everyone who helped me along the way! I can’t wait to see what this next chapter brings!
Please share!
Our lab is recruiting PhD students and/or postdocs for Fall 2025.
Projects may include a combination of fieldwork, isotope geochemistry, and modeling.
Reach out to discuss if interested!
Our new #PNAS paper comparing different types of marine protected areas (MPAs) shows that well-managed fished MPAs can provide strong conservation benefits, even similar to no-fishing MPAs

I'm excited to share @soojin_yi's and my review on the role of DNA methylation in phenotypic plasticity
We synthesize evidence of whether epigenetic variation drives plastic responses to environmental change at cellular, organismal, and population levels

🥳New paper🥳 Changes in DNA methylation across environments are often uncorrelated w/ expression in animals
We find that differential methylation's effect on expression depends on chromatin accessibility during plastic responses to ecological stress: https://t.co/6m9oR0VQkD
Researchers from @DukeEnvironment and @DukeEngineering are co-leading a new @NSF funded project that aims to boost economic development and climate resilience in coastal North Carolina through nature-based scientific and technological innovations.

I am absolutely thrilled to be joining the faculty at Duke University as an Assistant Professor of coastal and marine climate change! Look for the Wong Lab coming soon to @DukeMarineLab!
Juliet Wong will join our faculty as assistant professor of coastal and marine climate change, effective July 1. Wong’s research focuses on how impacts from climate change, such as ocean acidification and warming, affect marine invertebrates.
