🌍💙 Happy International Coccolithophore Day! 💙🌍
Today, Oct 10, we celebrate tiny ocean builders that capture CO₂, shape marine ecosystems & keep our climate in balance.
When Cocco talks, climate walks.

🌊Paper announcement! 📣
Viral infections rewire the metabolic makeup of their host and thereby create distinct chemical signatures. Can we use metabolic biomarkers to diagnose infections of algal blooms in the ocean?
Well, take a look at our new article led by Conny Kuhlisch in @pnas.org

Really excited to see this paper out!! Led by @vtcoop.bsky.social we show that if you use cold and warm paleoclimates together, you can reduce uncertainty in Earth's climate sensitivity by quantifying the pattern effect and more precisely constrain future climate change www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Participating in this workshop with such awesome mentors and fellow colleagues was both a great honor and a mind blowing experience 🤯

AI-driven protein design enables rapid creation of stable, fluorescent antibody probes, improving real-time visualization of gene expression and cellular activity in living cells. doi.org/hbkb33
AI tools speed development of antibody probes to see activity inside living cells
Researchers at Colorado State University have determined how to use artificial intelligence to modify antibodies so they act as lightbulbs, enabling scientists to better see inside living cells to track errors in gene expression that can lead to cancer and other disorders.

Global ocean models tend to oversimplify the way river chemistry affects coastal seawater. New research takes a step toward fixing that.
New River Chemistry Insights May Boost Coastal Ocean Modeling - Eos
By more realistically accounting for river inputs, researchers reduced overestimation of the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by coastal waters.

In other words: every time you get a genome, PDB, EM map, dataset or software package at the click of a button (or feed it to your AI model 🤔), don’t take it for granted. Beyond the authors, there’s a whole lot of experts working to make that available to you – most often unacknowledged!
