With its scientific expeditions, EMBL is pioneering a new era of field-based molecular life sciences. 🚌🔬
Supported by the Klaus Tschira Stiftung & many partners, these ‘labs on wheels’ enable the study of life in context across Europe, with a view to global impact. 🌍🧬

From the TREC Blog "My father passed away while I was working on TREC. Doing the work with others gave me the strength to carry on until I could return home to be with my family. It was a very sad time, but showed me how important this project & these people had become"

“With the Foundation’s backing, principles at the heart of TREC – open data, standardised protocols, and shared analytical approaches – are being adopted across new countries & continents,” said Paola Bertucci, Head @embl.org Scientific Expeditions. Check out this great article on labs on wheels!
Curiosity microscopes were distributed to local partners at key locations along the TREC – @fondationtaraocean.bsky.social @taraoceans-science.bsky.social expedition route. These microscopes will facilitate, support and expand existing outreach activities for local coastal communities.
Coastal sediments lining Europe’s shores hold a hidden archive of microbial biodiversity, past & present. As part of the TREC expedition, scientists collected samples from coastal sites across the continent. Meet Raffaele Siano, who leads TREC's work on coastal sediments www.embl.org/about/info/t...
TREC is hiring! @embl.org is looking for a field technician/engineer to coordinate soil sampling: plan activities, apply protocols, lead site scouting, coordinate teams & more. Join an amazing international team exploring a hidden universe beneath our feet. Please spread the word! bit.ly/4eSTPbZ

Check out this great article on the Curiosity microscope, used by @embl.org & BIOcean5D to empower teachers to share excitement of plankton discovery with their students! "The Curiosity microscope is fantastic because it will enable us to bring the classroom to the sampling site”
