It was amazing working on this cool paper with JB Raina, Justin Seymour, Maeva Bruner and others. The paper sheds light on the chemical partterns that drive chemotaxis across the bacterial domain @NYUADResearch @NYUAD_Science @NYUAbuDhabi @MooreFound https://t.co/bHPGhw0byb

It was an honor to be included in this cool initiative to highlight the obvious, yet overlooked role microbes can play in the climate change crisis. Thanks @peixotors and @gilbertjacka

[Amin Mohamed @AMohamed85]

Had a wonderful week attending #isme19 in the splendid #CapeTown!This was an amazing experience! Thanks to the local organisers @Thuls_M for having an excellent meeting and to the marine micro chairs @vincentflora for giving me the chance to present our #coral #microbiome work!

Excited to announce I've successfully defended my doctoral thesis at @MarineMicrobio and @unibremen exactly one month shy of 5 years since beginning this incredible journey. Huge thanks to my co-advisors Rudi from @MolEcol_MPIMM and @DiatomsBacteria at @NYUAbuDhabi #PhDone

[Ashley Isaac @bio__ash]

Check out our latest paper, published in @AppEnvMicro on the key members involved in #diatom #microbiome assembly. Huge thanks to my colleagues and co-authors @AMohamed85 and @DiatomsBacteria. Join me in Bremen at @MarineMicrobio on 12 July to hear more. https://t.co/wwrYjTZSiC

@TrentHaydon @AMohamed85 @FeiDiatom @carly_diatom @DiatomsBacteria Many thanks, Trent. Will celebrate properly once the official defense is done in July.😁

[Ashley Isaac @bio__ash]

A huge thank you to the members of Marine Microbiomics Lab (@AMohamed85, @FeiDiatom, @carly_diatom and others) led by @DiatomsBacteria. You all have been so instrumental in my development as a scholar.

[Shady Amin @DiatomsBacteria]

Celebrating the PhD thesis and birthday of @bio__ash and of 2 lab undergraduate capstone project completion with a very big cake!! With @AMohamed85 @carly_diatom @FeiDiatom and others

[Ashley Isaac @bio__ash]

Looking forward to attending and presenting some of the work from my doctoral thesis (currently loading - so stay tuned) at my first ISME conference....stoked that it's being held in my home country🇿🇦...drop me a line if you'd like to meet and chat while I'm around

Stoked to announce that the #coral #microbiome review I wrote with
@DiatomsBacteria
last year at FEMS #Microbiology #Reviews
@FEMSmicro
has won the best paper award of 2023 in FEMS Microbiology Reviews 😊

Want to know how a single metabolite produced by an organism/host can have opposing effects on 2 different bacterial species? Check out our latest paper https://t.co/gZfhPGh8J8 in @eLife about a diatom metabolite doing just that @NYUAD_Science @NYUADResearch @nyuadcgsb

[Ashley Isaac @bio__ash]

Stoked to see this finally out!
Ironic that I managed to keep arabidopsis alive for my experiment but not my succulent at home...RIP Chloro Phil....gone but never forgotten

[Shady Amin @DiatomsBacteria]

Excited to finally share our latest paper in @eLife https://t.co/cbrdagtz4V that shows how the diatom (and plant) metabolite azelaic acid enables diatoms to manipulate different bacterial populations @shiblahmed @AMohamed85 @punk_scientist @bio__ash & many others @NYUAD_Science

[Ashley Isaac @bio__ash]

Eight days shy of a year from beginning analysis and it's finally out for review....So it's time for a Christmas movie. #AcademicTwitter #phdlife #yippeekiyay

[Ashley Isaac @bio__ash]

When the grades are submitted, the evals are read, out of office reply is active, semester is over and you can finally start working...#AcademicTwitter

[Amin Mohamed @AMohamed85]

Great talk by our very own PI Shady Amin ⁦⁦@UAEMicrobiome23⁩ on our recent discovery of the unique roles of #Endozoicomonas #bacteria in #corals during thermal stress ⁦@DiatomsBacteria⁩

[Shady Amin @DiatomsBacteria]

New paper out characterizing a new genus and species symbiotic with #diatoms from the Persian/Arabian Gulf @MicrobioSoc @NYUAD_Science @nyuadcgsb @NYUADResearch https://t.co/QF5EfP5aS5

Students: Why haven't we got our grades back yet?

Me: Hmm...exams scripts are currently being reviewed by the second grader

@bielleogy I literally walked out a class right now, read this and I 100% agree
