Weltrekord?
UDE BioSLiDES hat vermutlich einen Weltrekord gebrochen: Das neueste digitale Präparat umfasst über eine Billion(!) Pixel und zeigt den frontalen Dünnschnitt eines Mäuseschädels in feinsten Details. Schaut es euch selbst an unter bioslides.biologie.uni-due.de/viewer.html?...

Just to give everyone a reminder: you should never have to get a loan for a graduate program in ecology, evolution, & organismal biology.

#🧪
It's graduate school application season, so here's your reminder that nobody should pay for a graduate degree in #ecoevo !

After a very impressive European Diatom Meeting we say thanks to the organizers from Skopje university and our student Mimoza Dani for the organization of our very successful stay in Ohrid. Beautiful, learning, networking.

Did you know that Victorians used to position diatoms for esthetic purposes? Michael Krämer has done the same and now you can see it on UDE BioSLiDES (in brightfield and phase contrast): udue.de/DiatMosaic

What is GreenHAB? GreenHAB is a German university consortium to study future distribution and effects of Harmful Algal Blooms forming algae and their effects in Greenland. Collaborating with Danish scholars, too, our first expedition to Disko Bay is coming up!

📣New Paper alert! Some time in the making, but finally our first dry river paper is done and published! Small project paid for by the UDE, amplicon sequencing underestimates diatom biodiversity through missing references in sub-aerophile diatoms. Take a look: www.frontiersin.org/articles/10....
