Such cool work!

[M Moniruzzaman @giant_virus]

Our work on cryptic infection of giant viruses was published today in @ScienceMagazine. We discovered a large virus hiding within a green algal genome producing virions.

Collaborative effort spearheaded by Virginia Tech, @univmiami & NIOZ scientists.

#ExOIS is very happy to announce the publication of our Perspective article in @FrontiersIn on what next steps are needed to transparently and ethically advance research and our understanding on the potential of #OIF as a method of #mCDR. @WHOI

Genetics: being able to understand the genome without technology or money

Genomics: setting fire to money to generate increasingly pointless data

Democrats should introduce a gun control bill called the "The Donald Trump safety and gun control bill" and make republicans vote against it.

Great to be out in front of our scientific peers at this year's #OCB2024 Summer Workshop talking about #OIF and #mCDR. Good work Jessica! @Cafe_Thorium @FeiChai8 @smith8272 @kramakrishna247 @US_OCB @ExOIS_OceanIron

Conference dinner for #algalbbb - what an epic location!!! Well done organizers. Great weather, dolphins, and rainbows. Couldn’t be better. @ElsevierConnect

Onyou Nam presenting a great talk on diatoms at #algalbbb @mackinderlab and sharing their lab’s tools to localize proteins to the Thalassiosira pseudonana pyrenoid

[Dr. Sarah Smith @smith8272]

#algalbbb 2024 is here! Conference starts today. Excited to be here in Clearwater, Florida to see everyone, talk to students and colleagues, and hear all the latest in the world of algal research

[Dr. Sarah Smith @smith8272]

I'll be presenting a plenary talk at #AlgalBBB 2024 this year - it's exciting to see how much the algae industry has grown since I became involved with it during my PhD studies in 2008. Very honored to be attending this conference and excited to see algae colleagues! Who's going?

[@exois-oceaniron.bsky.social @ExOIS_OceanIron]

Next week @WHOI #ExOIS will gather an international team of experts to discuss the design and implementation of the next generation of #OceanIronFertilization field experiments using the best science and technology available. #mCDR #OIF

@Th_Mock ahhh I'm so sorry to hear this! A giant in the field certainly. Aquatic Photosynthesis has been something of a bible to me throughout my studies and career. What a loss, and what a legacy.

Postdoc opportunity for someone who wants to use climate models to evaluate crazy ideas aimed at reducing the amount of climate change.

We're still looking for a postdoc in metabolic modeling and culture-based validation. If it sounds like you, reach out to discuss!

somehow the link to this thread in my original post got broken - but it's so nice, I'm gonna post it twice

[Dr. Sarah Smith @smith8272]

The thread that breaks it all down! What a thrilling discovery #nitroplast

[Anne Dekas @annedekas]

Glad to see this in @nytimes and glad this scientist found a solution that works for her. The dilemma is real, and unfortunately taking kids into the field is not an option for many of us. We need to keep thinking creatively about how to support (and retain) moms in the field.
