A showreel I made back in 2016. The #underwater world is full of wonders.

I am so grateful that now I can be part of a community that vows to protect and conserve our #ocean.

Wishing everyone a very happy first day of semester from the #BakerLab!
In particular, big shout out to our own @Wilson_WZY, the newest PhD student in the lab 🤿 Excited to see what the next academic year has in store 🥳

After a brief hiatus (thanks HK 5th wave 🥴) we’re back in the lab collecting data! FISH-ing and flow-cytometering with @Wilson_WZY 🔬

This is what it looks like when a pyjama shark lays an egg: a whole lot of twirling! Watch 'til the end and you'll see she's attaching her egg case (often called a mermaid's purse) to a sturdy piece of kelp with the egg's long curly tendrils. / 📷: Katy P.

Check out our project with AAHK on the @hkairport 3RS 13.5km seawall! In collab w/ @TNC_HK, we've deployed recycled oyster shells to trial oyster reef restoration potential in the area @SWIMSHKU @BaydenRussell @HemrajAshley @JayMinuti @hku_science @HKUSBS

I don't know how to blow your mind if this doesn't.

Did you need to see a pufferfish skeleton? Yep, yep, I think now is the right time 🤯

[Yohan @yohaniddawela]

In 1996, two academics from the University of Auckland, New Zealand, launched a new programming language.

25 years later, this language is one of the most widely used in the world.

Here's the story of R:

One more site for the #SedBiome project! Dr. Gonçalo and his team deployed yesterday our frames in Portugal! Thanks for being part of this great project ! #Microbiome #MarineBiology @BlueBioValue @SImarineGEO @stable_isodope

[Dr. Jonathan Cybulski @joncybulski]

Today at @SIRMS2 we changed the @thermofisher #GCMSIRMS column!

It was my first time changing a column, and we didn’t break anything! Now we can get C and N data for Amino Acids! Let’s goooo! #isotopes

#STABLE #ISOTOPE lecture! I am SUPER excited to discuss the various ways stable isotopes can and have been used for #ecological research, and highlight what services @SIRMS2 can provide!

Totally should update my showreel....

[HKU Baker Lab @stable_isodope]

5) Finally my last tweet of the #labthreads. I want to share a video I filmed and edited a few years back when I #scubadive for a living. Let’s all take a minute to appreciate the beauty of the ocean and then work to conserve it for the generation to come.

[Zhongyue Wan @Wilson_WZY]

I have never sent so much pics in a week before in my entire life.

[HKU Baker Lab @stable_isodope]

4) Working as a research assistant means I have the opportunity to get involved in different research projects to expand my knowledge. It also allows me to do a little bit of everything with great #marinebiologists. #livingthedream

[Zhongyue Wan @Wilson_WZY]

Let's keep this on and on and on!!!

[HKU Baker Lab @stable_isodope]

3) To be able to better conserve the #marineenvironment, in 2019, I started my MSc study in environmental management at HKU. In my master's research, I used photogrammetry to build #3DModels to quantify #coral surface area and volume growth under different treatments.

[Zhongyue Wan @Wilson_WZY]

Believe it or not, those are the only diving pics of me with a straight face.

[HKU Baker Lab @stable_isodope]

2)I first tried scuba diving in 2013 & fell in love with the world underwater. I started my journey as a @padi scuba diving instructor in 2015 & had the opportunity to dive with manta rays and bull sharks. More importantly, I got to teach people how to blow bubbles underwater 🧼
