Perfect timing with our 2025 Norfolk Island trip: new paper on tiger shark movement just out #NorfolkSharks
https://t.co/PulzdV3BGJ
35 tiger sharks (avg size 4 m) satellite tracked over 5 years
Led to the designation of @SharkRayAreas's Norfolk Ridge

📑 #NewStudy by Burns et al. finds complementary results using two #fish community monitoring systems – BRUVS and #eDNA – in the Great Australian Bight. Both methods distinguished depth-dependent communities.

@mike_microbe and #EwanBurns lead this comparison of fish assemblages between BRUVS and eDNA.
Only 17 of 102 species recorded by both methods. 40% increase in species-level detections by combining datasets.
Collab with @envirosanews and @ausmarineparks
Are white patches on whale sharks at Ningaloo cause for concern? A collaboration between researchers at Flinders University and UWA will help us to find out.
It's great to be attending #ISME 19 in Cape Town, South Africa! I presented my work alongside some really excellent researchers in the Animal Microbiome session. Thank you #ISME19 for giving me the opportunity to present.

There are many ways the species responsible for shark bites can be identified. Here, we tested gauzes from standard first-aid kits to collect transfer DNA from shark bites on inert object https://t.co/rAEQfO7bnB
Emma Kerr headlined the #SharkParty with a great look at the taxonomy and gene functions of the skin microbiomes of South Australian shark species.
@AUSSOCMIC#ASM2024
I kicked off the #SharkParty in the Environmental Microbiome session with my work on the phage ecology of shark skin!
Shark Week did not sponsor this post, they’re not small-minded enough for microbial ecology.
@AUSSOCMIC#ASM2024
We entered the Doane Zone! Michael Doane gave a great talk about positive ecological interactions in tiger shark microbiome network architecture. Call it a Cluster-Fun!
@AUSSOCMIC#ASM2024
In the Flinders and Mortlock room, Adam Miller, Michael Doane @mike_microbe, and Belinda Martin @BelindaKMartin are leading a workshop on ‘The genomic era of white shark ecology’ #whitesharksglobal2023
Preprint alert 🦠💩🔬
Do human gut & #soil metagenomes encode key information about a #microbiome's capacity to process compounds supporting human health?

Don't miss out on this awesome opportunity tonight at the National Wine Centre of Australia to hear from eminent researchers studying big questions pertaining to AMR and One Health Initiatives! @DinsdaleLab
📢 Reminder! Today's the day for the JAMS Adelaide event, featuring captivating talks on AMR ecology and One Health initiatives. Don't miss out, it starts at 5:30 PM at the National Wine Centre of Australia! 🌟
@BarbaraDrigoAU@mike_microbe @VilmaPrez9 @linsalrob@DinsdaleLab
Adelaide JAMS returns on Sept 20th (5:30PM to 7:30 PM) at the National Wine Centre of Australia, with four exceptional speakers who are coming to Adelaide as part of the SAAFE CRC launch!! Join us!! @BarbaraDrigoAU@linsalrob@DinsdaleLab@mike_microbe @VilmaPrez9
Back from a recent trip from Kangaroo Island @lucindahats has been collecting water samples from across the island. The water samples will be assessed for #platypus eDNA to assist in detecting remnant platypus populations. 🧬

New paper alert! Whale sharks, microbes, and global microbiome patterns!
https://t.co/tljfrYUHiI
Microbial network patterns described from the skin of whale sharks around the world suggest a fundamental feature of the skin microbiome.
