A collaborative work @Scripps_Ocean, bridging top-notch engineering and pressing biological questions in coral research. It was a journey of learning, and I am very excited to continue working on this project 🔬📷

BREAKING:

The police has been forced to evacuate Jewish students from a building of University of California San Diego @ucsandiego where they had gathered to discuss antisemitic threats.

Swiftly, a large and threatening anti-Israeli mob gathered in front of the building

Keep looking away @UCSanDiego. Shame on you.

Always thrilled seeing #coral studies in a journal like @Nature.
Grateful for taking a part in this story lead by @TheCoralReefLab

Scientists are pushing the limits of diving to explore overlooked ocean depths. I've never used a rebreather but I love the idea of no-bubbles peace. I spoke with deep-diving scientists incl. @ERiKa_GRess @CoralReefFish

I’m really excited to publish the 3rd chapter of my PhD in @FrontMicrobiol

Soft corals are common on many coral reefs. But, many aspects of their #biology and #ecology are understudied

Here, we aimed to provide data on their photosymbiotic partners

The best way to see Van Gogh's "Starry Night" is to stare at the center of the spiral for 20 seconds and then look at the painting.

Body transfer illusion is the illusion of owning a part of a body other than one's own.

This is the famous rubber hand experiment and it tricks your brain.
