Hi there folks- turns out Aussie universities are looking for new people! Are you based in the US, tenured (is that what you call a continuing position?) and feel like the lure of the southern hemisphere is calling you? Happy to take questions :)

Send us your papers celebrating yeasts!

Good to find you over 'here'. Thanks for the great work you do.

‘Graveyard of corals’ found after extreme heat and cyclones hit northern Great Barrier Reef Marine scientists say one area around Cooktown and Lizard Island had lost more than a third of its live hard coral after bleaching event Follow our Australia news live blog for latest updates Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast Reefs across the north of the Great Barrier Reef have seen “substantial losses” of coral cover after a summer of extreme heat, two cyclones and major flooding, according to the first results of surveys from government marine scientists. After the most widespread coral bleaching event seen on the world’s biggest reef system, the Australian Institute of Marine Science said one area around Cooktown and Lizard Island had lost more than a third of its live hard coral – the biggest annual drop in 39 years of monitoring.

BugSigDB captures patterns of differential abundance across a broad range of host-associated microbi... A database of microbial signatures is used for systematic comparison of differential abundance patterns.

There are limitations but this is a neat tool to play around with

Search for a microbiome species/genus and it'll return studies in which that taxon was differentially abundant

(I wish we had something like this for mechanistic microbiome studies)
