Honored (and surprised!) to be part of a postcard underground campaign and got anonymous postcards supporting our coral research, especially our work testing new concrete substrates to support reef restoration 🌊 🪸#SciComm #Coral

The Mydlarz Lab has a second coral machine learning paper out this month! @emily-vanburen.bsky.social developed a diagnostic tool that classifies two coral diseases: white plague and #SCTLD. 463 genes, some involved in inflammation and protein trafficking, characterized the diseases. rdcu.be/eCNic

About 3 years ago i agreed to update the Encyclopedia of Immunobiology chapter on Cnidarian Immunity. It turned into a labor of love because so many new discoveries had been made since it was written in 2016! We hope this is a valuable resource for everyone! www.themydlarzlab.com/uploads/5/2/...

A new venture for me! Collaboration with colleagues in engineering to test concrete formulations as potential artificial reefs. www.uta.edu/news/news-re...

A bold plan to 3D print artificial coral reef

UTA team is 3D printing material that mimics ancient Roman concrete to restore coral reefs

Fun at UTArlington planetarium watching the eclipse with the community! We got 80% coverage here in DFW. Love that my teen daughter and her friends thought it was so cool!

Happy to see this paper scim.ag/4jh from Steve Vollmer's lab with exciting data showing coral disease resistance can be linked to SNPs in 4 immune genes. See mine and Erinn Muller's Perspective in Science Magazine scim.ag/4ji for the big picture of what this means for restoration efforts.

The Mydlarz lab took photos for @keishabahr.bsky.social lab colorimetry project this summer and had a lot of fun doing it! They need more photos especially during this bleaching event. See info below.
