Hey #microbialsky - anyone looking for a good PhD student this cycle? Ugrad from my lab is looking but no luck with the PIs she has contacted (no funding, no response). She worked in my lab for 1.5 years, now is a research tech at the FWC research institute. Excellent at the bench & super smart!

In Sept 2025, Black Ocean Stanford Scholars (BOSS) and the Monterey Bay Aquarium hosted a 3-day gathering celebrating Black scholars in ocean studies. From networking and tide-pool exploring to identity workshops and a moving aquatic-history exhibit, the event ended with a candlelit dinner. 🌊

In our latest, we tackle a long-standing conundrum: when and where do diatoms reproduce sexually? Using a lab-to-field strategy, we designed conserved sex markers applied to microcosms & Tara Oceans metatranscriptomes, revealing widespread sex in the global ocean. Read all about it now in NatComm:
Conserved genetic markers reveal widespread diatom sexual reproduction in the global ocean - Nature Communications
Diatoms dominate the oceans, yet sexual reproduction - key to bloom dynamics and species evolvability - is rarely observed. Using a lab-to-field approach, this study presents conserved markers applica...
