A huge Thank You to Raquel Peixoto and @reefgenomics.bsky.social for this opportunity!

Bacterial inoculation elicits changes to the coral epigenome Environmental shifts can cause epigenetic modifications in corals, which are associated with changes in gene expression and physiology, though it remains unclear if associated bacteria can also induce...

Check out our preprint where we discovered a link between bacterial inoculations and epigenome changes in coral, with implications for coral resilience!

Widespread inconsistency in logger deployment methods in coral reef studies may bias perceptions of thermal regimes Ocean warming is the greatest threat to coral reefs, prompting a need to accurately monitor in situ temperatures. Advancements in sensing technologies have led to a proliferation of temperature logger...

🚨New paper alert! Do you deploy loggers to monitor temperature in coral reefs, or any shallow aquatic environments? Do you shade them from direct sunlight? You should! 🌊🦑 journals.plos.org/climate/arti...

Hello, thanks for putting this together. Can you please add me as well?
