Stay tuned for more work on the physiology, adaptive capacity and stress tolerance of the #corals living in this #extreme and #marginal coral environment!

Spoiler: they fared much better during the 2023/24 global bleaching event 😍

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,400,406!

📣 Excited to share our new Editorial led by James Reimer and @reefgenomics.bsky.social!

As #coral #bleaching unfolds in the southern hemisphere, let's not forget that many surviving corals in the north remain bleached and susceptible to #disease...

See this bleached massive starlet coral that is suffering from Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease.... 💔💔💔

We had so much fun at the lab Christmas party - highly recommend Glow in the Dark Mini Gulf, especially when it's all coral reef themed 😂

Excited to share this #pre-print about a new extreme and marginal #coral environment in the southern Caribbean!

Amazing work by Master students Chiara de Jong, Iris van Os and Guadalupe Sepulveda-Rodriguez - especially given that all fieldwork was done during 2020!!
