You can spend a life time on a boat - and still be looking at new things every single day! Here is a quick glimpse of what’s just under our feet/boat!!

Somewhere in Atlantic - and sea is like glass for last few days. We are out here measuring carbon flux & how ocean removes all of that carbon. Microbes don’t work for us; so unless we understand the processes - we don’t know where tipping points are. Thankful to @NSF for supporting basic science.

Just returned back to land after an incredible expedition with Alex/Hannah/Enrico from lab - again in California Currents - joint with Ann Dekas lab. We tested a new carbon sequestration idea & mapped inhabitants of deep dark ocean & more. Filled with magical (read science) experiences. Thread soon.

Our latest discovery of “lowest recorded temperature for eukaryotic cell motility” going all the way down to -15deg C. Come for the crazy cold Arctic & stay for diatoms. Will write longer thread - but enjoy video below of diatoms gliding on frozen ice surfaces. Congrats @zqing.bsky.social & team.

A student from Sudan “Marwan” once told me an ancient Sudanese saying: “Never create a pen that does not eradicate ignorance and shame”.. AI is that pen 🖊️
After 13 years of working on malaria - we are ready to scale real time ML based malaria diagnostics operational in the field. #octopi #Senegal
