Tiny sea cucumbers, big mysteries! 🪱
Out sampling for my MSCA project SensHolo at the @msarscentre.bsky.social, at the University of Bergen, 🇳🇴— exploring how these mini echinoderms sense their world.
Plus a few bonus echinoderms! 🌊✨

🌊🧪 Big day at #chemecol2025!
I presented my talk:
“Chemical cues & larval behaviour in the tunicate Ciona intestinalis 🪸✨

I had the pleasure of chairing the Aquatic Chemical Ecology session — featuring amazing talks on annelids, cnidarians, oysters, and red algae. 🌿🦪🪼🪱

🎬 ACTION! The curtain rises…
So pumped for a whole week of chemical ecology adventures here in Christchurch, NZ 🇳🇿 with @chemicalecology.bsky.social!

Expect plenty of land drama 🌱🌿🐝🦟🪲
…and some splashy aquatic cameos too 🪸🪼🦪💦
