@AirCanada thanks for turning 2 hr layover into 48 hr layover, then providing no customer service forcing us to pay for the expensive airport hotel. Followed by a full day jerk around to get our luggage. Most expensive part of a week stay in Japan was my layover in Montreal.

Review paper concerning #triploid #oysters. Triploids dominant oyster #aquaculture in most regions however there is very limited data on many aspects of their biology. Here we discuss what I'd known about the health #parasites, and immunology of triploids. @SoMAS

[Chris Brianik @CBrianik]

@biolumiJEFFence Congrats! I also just got an acceptance I'd been waiting ~2 months for today on aquaculture!

Happy to announce the publication of a fun side project started with @boppjust and a few undergrad researchers investigating a highly prevalent (100%) gill parasite, Bdelloura candida that can occupy 14% of a crabs fill surface area.

@Collier_Lab_SBU Not a problem, it's the coolest topic so I'm glad I could share the info

[Chris Brianik @CBrianik]

@Collier_Lab_SBU Lol. I was unaware of this. Gonna have to listen to it on the ride home

@ASleepyWanderer @boppjust

[Chris Brianik @CBrianik]

@JimmyBernot @SarahMackAttack B.candida also lays cocoons on the book gills of the adult crab, 100% prevalence in my system. Currently working on a manuscript addressing these intense infection ( we've seen 15% of gill area covered by these cocoons)

@JimmyBernot Loved the tapeworm example. Supper cool, reminds me of a monogenea
