@jake_smallbone reveals how a industry collaboration as part of his PhD led to work on a real world oil spill, uncovering the fascinating ways that bacterial communities respond to pollution and can be deployed as biomarkers and in bioremediation. the-microbiologist.com/careers/my-phd…

My first publication has been printed, this makes up the first data chapter of my PhD thesis, I am thrilled to finally have a publication under my belt! A huge thanks to @EssexLifeSci, @oilspillexperts @NERCscience and @ARIES_DTP for supporting this work meridian.allenpress.com/iosc/article/2…

Learned so much from @Alain_Zuur & Elena Ieno this week on our course about GLMM & GAMMs with spatial-temporal data at the @Uni_of_Essex. Everyone book yourself a course/buy a book! Now trying to figure out which dataset I use my precious 1-on-1 hour to discuss with them! 🤔 🤓🐟

Essex representing at the Ocean Sciences Meeting (and killing it!) #osm24 @WoodwardRowe @chen_zelin @HaleighJorgeson

Fantastic @mmeg2023 plenary talk by @lappinscott - plenty of encouraging advice 👩‍🔬

@sbinn95 Was at BES last year! It was a great time, you'll do great!

Alice Malcom-McKay presents intertidal seagrass as part of #MASTSASM23 #blue #carbon session. This work is in collaboration with MEDIN partner, @ProjectSeagrass 🌱🌊🌱 @mastscot #carbonstocks #seagrass

Meet Zelin Chen @chen_zelin. He studies the effects of man-made structures on community biodiversity and food web structure in the North Sea ecosystem. He is enthusiastic in cruise sampling on sea.

Fantastic time presenting some of my previous work on Marine Oil Snow the MASTS 2024 AGM IN Glasgow @Uni_of_Essex @mastscot @EssexLifeSci

Great lecture today about fish recruitment & the nursery role hypothesis by @SeaBassBase complete with a smelly fyke net demo! I then gave a high octane revision quiz on @Mentimeter which was super fun. Winner (my student but not rigged) got a fabulous shark hat 👒 @EssexLifeSci

Running my first workshop as part of the greenest generation scheme with @Uni_of_Essex, this aims to provide prospective students with a outlook on the various industries and roles they can get involved in through environmental science and industry!

What an amazing response to #EssexBioBlitz already 😍🌷 Thank you to everyone who's already been involed! Keep recording those wildflowers!

You love #coral? You love #genetics? You want a #PhD? You from the UK? Come join the team! #coral connectivity in Indian Ocean. DEADLINE in 3 days (!) - 19th May bit.ly/3pqRUWx @CatherineHead14 @leannehepburn @rmealla @ResearchEssex @EssexLifeSci Email me for info :) 🪸

1200 native flat #oyster relaid this morning for @NaturalEngland @EssexOyster experiment on #restoration densities - early start but gorgeous morning with Marsh harriers, Med gulls, Whimbrel, Curlew, godwits, GCGrebe, Shellies and Pochard - thx to @jake_smallbone for support

My first dive in Alvin is in 10 hrs!! 🤩😳🤩😬🤩🪸🌊 Cannot wait to explore the depths of this beautiful place. #GalapagosDeep2023 Can anyone guess what the red tube is for ? 🤭 And yes, the window will be much clearer 🙌🏻 #nosleepforme #deepsea @EssexLifeSci @Uni_of_Essex

We're incredibly excited to annouce that Dr Michael Steinke will be speaking to King Charles and Camilla tomorrow about the work he has been doing on oysters and coastal protection, a truly fantastic opportunity! 👑🦪🌊

Very pleased to announce my first paper publication, looking at modular structure and functional traits in marine food webs. Read it here ⬇️ @ARIES_DTP @EssexLifeSci @BAS_News frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
