Join us right now! #OSM24

Second #SciComm session at 5pm today at #OSM24 - come find out when you should use digital tools vs. “offline” outreach, how to set goals and choose your tool (video, audio, long form writing, etc)

Screenshot of the conference app for the website session: "How to build a professional website", Mon Feb 19, 4-5pm CST, Poster Hall

Or if you want a longer but less customized experience, come to the workshop I'm leading with @hollybik.bsky.social Mon @ 4 ⬇️

Happy Monday OSM24! @hollybik.bsky.social is sharing work on the Patch Mosaic hypothesis. #spatialbiodiversity

Flyer for the Rainbow Reception at Ocean Sciences Meeting in New Orleans. Rainbow in the background with text as follows: This informal social event is an opportunity to share conversation and refreshments with fellow LGBTQIA+ ocean scientists and engineers. We hope to build community and get organized. There is no set schedule, so stop by anytime. This event is primarily intended for people who identify as LGBTQIA+, but allies can support us by spreading the word and encouraging LGBTQIA+ colleagues to attend. Add Rainbow Reception to your schedule. Tuesday, 20 February 2024 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM Convention Center Room 338-339 Third Floor

Identify as LGBTQIA+ and headed to #OSM24? Join me at the Rainbow Reception on Tuesday from 6-9 PM in Room 338-339 on the Third Floor of the convention center. 🌈🌊🦑

this is like inventing the toaster. possibly the largest impact of a single member of an indigenous community on modern science

Really excited that this paper is finally out! We analyzed the prokaryotic and microeukaryotic portions of the Paramuricea clavata microbiome🦠and found that certain microeukaryotes were significantly correlated with thermal stress sensitivity 🔥 ami-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/....
