BlueRevolutionProject

The BlueRev team is meeting today to take stock of the progress of the project and the work to come.

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! This is the end! This year we train 20 meio-students! Thanks to la Aula de la mar de Palma to welcoming us during this week. Thanks to Pedro (Sekenberg), Nuria, Diego, Alberto y Marta (universidad Complutense de Madrid)for their participation & expertise.

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! Last day of Meioscool training! This morning we talk about genetic, imagery datas and outreach! We also take time to exchange during a open discussion. #meiofauna #meioscool

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! This afternoon, Students were also able to discover the Curiosity mini field microscope. This pocket-sized microscope allows real observations and image acquisition! The students then discovered different image annotation tools such as EcoTaxa and Biigle.

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! Today, morning of sorting the samples collected for the meioscool. The sorting session was focused on the sorting and recognition of Foraminifera. #meioscool #meiofauna #foraminifera

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! The program for this afternoon? 👉 Parallel sessions! On the one hand a presentation and a discussion workshop on the functional traits of nematodes and copepods. And on the other hand the sorting of the samples taken this morning!

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! In the second part of the morning, a sampling by boat in the Bay of Palma was carried out. Sediment at 30m depth was collected by a dredge. We will analyse samples this afternoon during practice session. #meioscool #meiofauna

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! This morning the group of 18 meioscool participants was divided into small groups to participate in different workshops. Day starts by sampling meiofauna at the beach to complete the samples taken by the team from the Uni of Madrid.

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! Today, first day at meioscool. This day is dedicated to several theoretical courses to go through different taxa in detail. Participants will learn all about nematodes, foraminifera, copepoda, tantulocarida, polycheates, loricifera and kinorhynca.

🔴 Meioscool - in live ! Meioscool 2023 is starting now ! #meioscool #meiofauna #auladelamar #mallorca

Fantastic @Naturalis_Sci colloquium today with @DanielaZeppilli and @ValentinFoulon from @Ifremer_fr! The Blue Revolution Project is developing #AI tools to study and monitor marine benthic diversity. Cool innovations in #microscopy, #automatisation and #meiofauna research

❗️Dear meio community, Following a withdrawal, we have a place available to attend the Meioscool23. If you or any contact is interested we need a quick reply to arrange logictics. Note that the first respondent will be selected! Feel free to contact us bluerevolution@ifremer.fr

📍 Last night, the BlueRev team was at BEACH BREAK (Santec, Finistère, France) to present the project and introduce the meiofauna to the science-hungry public during the Pint of Science - Roscoff 🍻 event! @pintofscienceFR

📍 To live happily, let us live hidden! Do you live in Finistère (France)? Are you free on the evening of Tuesday 23 May? Meet the BlueRev team at Pint of Science in Roscoff ! Reservation and informations here 👇 pintofscience.fr/event/pour-viv…

🔬 Focus on ! Scanning electron microscopy of a benthic copepod isolated from a core of Roscoff sediment taken last August! A colonisation of the entire surface of the copepods by epizoic diatoms of the genus Grammatophora or Protoraphis is often observed!
