Oceanographer & Molecular Biologist - still sad-tweeting here and clinging to this platform in the dwindlinghopes it returns to the scientific glory it once was


Our work on cryptic infection of giant viruses was published today in @ScienceMagazine. We discovered a large virus hiding within a green algal genome producing virions. Collaborative effort spearheaded by Virginia Tech, @univmiami & NIOZ scientists. bit.ly/4lroSyC








Jessica Drysdale gave a great overview of the objectives and activities of #ExOIS at the #OCB2024 Summer Workshop, and the need for the best science to find out if #OceanIronFertilization #OIF should be part of our #mCDR toolbox. Thank you @US_OCB for the pic and time to present!





I'll be presenting a plenary talk at #AlgalBBB 2024 this year - it's exciting to see how much the algae industry has grown since I became involved with it during my PhD studies in 2008. Very honored to be attending this conference and excited to see algae colleagues! Who's going?







Expeditions can be hard to maneuver as a mother & scientist. Intense & exciting to have my essay published in @nytimes exploring how Expeditions can be an Academic Act of Defiance Mapping fungi w/family @spununderground @nytopinion: tinyurl.com/5adc5cwf (photo 2011, Kenya)
