Talking about how microbes manipulate egg size and developmental evolution!
Thanks to all that came out to our symposium on developmental symbiosis.
What are the biggest open questions in #microbiome and #symbiosis research?
At #CSEE, we’re running a symposium on disturbance, adaptation, and the parasitism–mutualism continuum—and we want to foster discussion around these questions.

Lots of people have reached out asking how they can support us after the devastating fire in the MSL building, the heart of @cmarinescience.bsky.social Here’s one way, a GoFundMe organized by our graduate students - gofund.me/4373c6ff3. Please share widely, and thanks for helping our community!

learning about the microbial dimension of human life appeared to strengthen people’s psychological relationship with the natural world.
This matters because nature connectedness is associated with:
- improved wellbeing
- stronger pro-environmental behaviours
