PriME - Principles of Microbial Ecosystems
@primecollaboration.bsky.social
A Simons collaboration which investigates the principles underpinning the self-organization, structure, and function of #microbial communities in the #ocean.
A warm PriME welcome to Richard!🎉
Richard joined the Hwa Lab at UC SanDiego
as a new Postdoc, exploring how physiological variation within bacterial species shapes their evolution 🧫🔬.
We’re excited to have you with us!

Welcome to the PriME team, Eliane! 🎉
Eliane has just joined the Stocker Lab as a new PhD student, exploring how microbial processes shape the ocean’s carbon cycle 🌊🦠.
We’re thrilled to have you on board!

We gathered this week for our Annual Meeting in NYC - three days of inspiring exchange!✨
This year, we introduced group work sessions for review papers🗒️to reflect and synthesize our interdisciplinary work😀
Thank you to all participants and @simonsfoundation.org
for the support!

🎉Excited to welcome Melanie Stäubli in our network as a new PostDoc (@Levine's group)!
As a microbial ecologist with a flair for quantitative modeling, she studies how phycosphere interactions shape phytoplankton dynamics and impact marine carbon cycling.
Great to have you on board, Melanie! 🌊🔬

We welcome our new PostDoc member Nittay @nittaym.bsky.social @micsysecolab.bsky.social 😃.
He’ll be investigating how catabolic cascades emerge from species’ proteomic strategies — and how these shape community responses to environmental changes 🌍
Nice to have you aboard, Nittay! 🙌

We're excited to welcome Michaela, who recently joined us as a PostDoc at the Cordero's lab (MIT)!
She will explore how changes in cellular function impact #microbialcommunity dynamics, bringing her expertise in metabolic engineering, protein engineering, and synthetic biology 🤗🦠
