Congrats to Brandon Kristy, grad student in @kelloggbiostn.bsky.social Evan's lab, who will go to Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to study the "unseen" partners of sustainable bioenergy.

Sifting through cross-site @uslter.bsky.social data, researchers found plots with greater biodiversity were more resistant to extreme climatic events. But the key dimensions of biodiversity that helped them cope in wet years weren’t the same as those for dry years.

Come join us for a deep dive into Michigan's aquatic plants!
There are still a few spots available in our two-day Aquatic Plant Identification Course at MSU's Kellogg Biological Station! Come join us as we take a deep dive into aquatic plant life in the field and classroom, June 17-18.

Happy to see our new paper led by @marangureng.bsky.social
on metabolic signatures of high temperature adaptation in diatoms published! 🎉
In collaboration with @suleles.bsky.social, Angel Diz, María Huete-Ortega, Andy Allen and Naomi Levine.

The sounds were sublime and the science was savvy. Thanks to all who joined us last night for the @msuscifest.bsky.social Sound and Science event, featuring Jordan Hamilton on cello and KBS scientists speaking about their research.
We'll do it again at the Robin Theatre in Lansing on April 30!
Our new paper on antifragility in ecology and evolution is out in @asn-amnat.bsky.social: www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...
Join us in person or online Wednesday, April 29, to hear from our new director, Dr. Bryan Foster, at our spring Dessert with Discussion talk! Register for free: bit.ly/kbs-DwD-spri...
New paper out! Very exciting results! How do marine diatoms evolve heat tolerance?

Proteomics reveal Chaetoceros simplex-evolved populations adopt a conservative, resource-recycling strategy when exposed to above-optimal temperatures. This involves downregulating biosynthesis, whic...
We propose that ‘antifragility’, coined by Nassim Taleb, is a great high-level concept for ecologists of all kinds for parsing and communicating the effects of environmental variability. An antifragile property benefits from variability. We explore its use in two mathematical models. (2/4)
