Great seminar by Bob Morris @cmarinescience.bsky.social today! @cninaphore.bsky.social and I are lucky to be collaborating with him on the hunt for SUP05 phage #NSFfunded #phagesky 🦠🌊

Man standing near lecture showing a beautiful electron microscopy image of phage infecting SAR11. He carried a genomes as great books analogy through his talk - this slide is called “War and Peace (SAR11 prophage)”

Do you love phage? I have an opening for a postdoc in my lab at the University of South Florida College of Marine Science (@cmarinescience.bsky.social) looking at interactions between marine phage and iron, which is an important limiting trace metal in the oceans (1/5) 🧵#phagesky 🦠🌊

Excited to share our new mSphere paper describing ssRNA viruses associated with Karenia brevis harmful algal blooms in southwest Florida in mSphere led by Jean Lim - a 🧵(1/10) 🧪🦠🌊 #MicroSky #ProtistsOnSky #USFCMS @asm.org @cmarinescience.bsky.social journals.asm.org/doi/full/10....

Image of the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis under the microscope. The dinoflagellate is heart shaped and the chloroplasts are clearly visible around the edges of the cell.

This is a super cool science story, but maybe also a deeper message for current events… Even though the light is much dimmer in the past few weeks, we need to survive and be ready to thrive when even a small bit returns! Channel your inner Arctic phytoplankton! 🧪
