In this study, we used #metabolomics to trace #viral infections in #coccolithophore blooms across the Atlantic analyzing data from four cruises including the #TARA Breizh and #TARA Gayoso expeditions.

Today marks my new fav #newPI fail... I unknowingly 6-7'd my #cellbio class (my TA asked if it was intentional after lecture)π€¦ββοΈ
I used #coccolithophore examples for #microscopy talk... Was literally talking about the upper limit of Ghux diameter. Don't think my lab will let me live this one down.
umbrella or parasol shaped structures radiating from a central region but kind of jumbled
The genus Papposphaera is characterized by a crown-shaped circular plate with serrated edges and a long projection in its center, both of equal length. #coccolithophore via

A 2024 highlight was the production of this unique #coccolithophore dress, commissioned by PML and brought to life by a designer and Arts University Plymouth students. Find out more & watch our short video 'the creation of the coccolithophore dress': www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ndU... (2/2)
Spending quality time in the excellent Instituto Nacionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale - OGS in Trieste and planning new #coccolithophore adventures with funding from the ECCSELLENT project and @emboYIN.

Emoji Tree of life
Coccolithophore emoji
Foraminifera emoji
Dinoflagellate emoji
Interesting read today about the The Tree of Life, emoji version - www.nature.com/articles/d41... - take home messages, we need more invertebrates - so I asked an emoji generator to make a #coccolithophore, a #foraminifera, and a #dinoflagellate - hilarious results
