Do apply! You will be working with Subha (tcgcrest.org/people/subhasi…) and me. We'll study swim kinematics of mosquito larvae of different species to develop automated tools for their surveillance. It should be a super fun project! Check out the details: tigs.res.in/wp-content/upl…

Glad to have collaborated with @NayakLab1 @Srinivas_a1 @aalokelab in this study published in @iScience_CP and highlighted how citizen science with policy framework can also contribute towards monitoring of harmful algal bloom across aquatic ecosystems of India @ITMERG1
NayakLab@NayakLab1

Our article (@Srinivas_a1 @aalokelab @BhadPunyasloke) on an integrated approach to monitor and study harmful algal blooms in India is out in @iScience_CP. cell.com/iscience/fullt… On a personal note, a first foray into India-centric research topics - hopefully more to come!

A comprehensive database of all documented HABs in Indian coastal/estuarine waters to date available here: zenodo.org/records/146909…. Thanks to @Srinivas_a1 for painstakingly combing through the literature for this - hopefully a useful dataset for the Indian HAB community!

I am looking for a PhD student to start in fall of 2025 at MSU. Potential topics include trait-based approaches to plankton community resilience, temperature effects on communities, harmful algal blooms, etc . Please get in touch if interested. More info: kl-lab.group.

Had a fantastic time at the 12th US Symposium on Harmful Algae in Portland, ME last week. Excellent presentations (Lightning talk+poster) by lab UG Madison Bennett on her holography for Microcystis work, which were well-received! ICHA in Chile next year?:)

Our results indicate that oceanic mixotrophs could be widely underestimated and their biomass misattributed to autotrophic plankton by non-imaging based methods (e.g., fluorometry), thus highlighting the importance of pairing high-res imaging with traditional approaches. 3/3

Highest documented abundance of the mixotroph, Laboea strobila, seen within the thin layer. Additionally, L. strobila indulges in klepoplasty (stealing and retention of algal chloroplasts!), which leads to chlorophyll a in the water column to be dominated by this mixotroph. 2/3

Our lab participated in a successful cruise in the frigid waters of the Baltic Sea off Finland last month. Lots of cool data to sift through! Thanks @KristianSpillin for the invite and the fantastic crew of R/V Aranda! (Some pics courtesy @SYKEint)

@lohithrao As an Ankola native, I can vouch for this. Terrible state of affairs - not a single square inch seems free of plastic or broken glass shards, including once-pristine hillsides along the beaches.

A common sight all along the highway, this gets bit worse around Ankola. This is a result of some travellers in cars and buses treat roads as dust bin. When will these people learn?

@Iyervval Juggernaut would have been perfect for a couple of reasons - (i) etymologically, derived from Jagannath, so sets the Indian context; and (ii) one might anyway feel like the 'Lord of the Universe' (Jagan-nath) looking down at us mere mortals from space:)

What do you think Indian space travellers should be named? Cosmonauts are Russian - Astronauts are American

Presentations by lab postdoc Sumit Dass (in situ stereoimaging system for zooplankton observations) and PhD student Alexis Base (mysid-flow interactions) on Day 1 at the Ocean Sciences Meeting in New Orleans! Great start to one of my favourite conferences.
