Cultivating deep-sea corals can definitely be a challenge, but it also gives you “motherly feelings” after over a year of taking care of them. So here I am as a proud mum showing off my babies 💜🥹

Today, our latest paper made headlines in Brazil! We named a new viral order and family after two gods from Brazilian mythology. A small step towards valuing Brazilian science culture. bbc.com/portuguese/articles/…

X/Twitter is back in Brazil. Just in time to share this amazing paper lead by @Alegarritano
🌊 Deep-sea menage à trois? 🦠 A sponge, an archaeon, and a bacterium rely on carbon & vitamin B12 exchange — until a virus crashes the party! Discover how ammonia-oxidation and viral lysis drive this unique #symbiosis! doi.org/10.1093/ismejo/wrae1… #Metagenomics #DeepSea #Microbiology
Also, this was another amazing work I had the pleasure of contributing to. @PedroMoreiraCa5 is such a talented student and it was truly a delight to work with him!

ALT In Raquel Peixoto's group, Pedro studies how marine macroorganisms and their microorganisms respond to environmental impacts, aiming to apply this knowledge to marine ecosystem conservation and restoration.
Unfortunately I couldn’t attend to #isme19 this year, but I’ve been checking out the updates of the new amazing work being showcased over there. Here’s what I would be presenting there if I could’ve made it to Cape Town. Beautiful work with the most amazing @peixotors
The final version of our paper about microbes associated with in hospite Symbiodiniaceae cells is out! Check it out!

Presenting my poster this afternoon at #ISME19. Please come say hi! Let’s talk deep-sea corals 😌
Lilian Hill retweeted
If you are around for #ISME19 and interested at extremophiles and carbon fixation, come to my talk tomorrow, 3:25 pm at the Global Biogeochemical cycles session. I'll talk about the carbon fixation mechanisms in the deep-sea and how fixed carbon is transfered to the sponge host!

Join us at the #ISME19 and learn more about the research done at the #MarineMicrobiomesLab!🥳📷@peixotors

Minha experiência na pane cibernética mundial tá sendo 2 vôos atrasados e um embarque lentíssimo pq a moça da Azul tá tendo que conferir o nome de cada passageiro em uma lista impressa tal qual faziam os Incas.

What has been going on in the South of Brazil is absolutely insane, but it’s also the face of climate change. It’s time to stakeholders to act now to mitigate as much as possible and protect the most vulnerable population. This is what’s happening now, and we have to act now!
A região metropolitana de Porto Alegre está debaixo d’água. O repórter @mateusjmarques mostra uma das principais avenidas da capital gaúcha inundada pelas enchentes. “É apavorante. Minha voz faz eco por causa do silêncio. Essa avenida é movimentada”, relata o jornalista.

Sabia que existe um relatório que projetou todo esse desastre no RS? O documento se chama "Brasil 2040", é de 2015 - e foi engavetado. Ali são projetados cenários futuros e medidas de adaptação do país às mudanças climáticas. intercept.com.br/2024/05/06/… por @tatikmd

Sabe qual a melhor estratégia para repatriar cientistas? Repensar o modelo de concursos no Brasil, recompor os salários com uma política de ajustes periódicos e oferecer infraestrutura com condições mínimas de financiamento à pesquisa. Não é fazendo política de nicho. Por favor.

😍breakthrough season :-)
First data showing coral probiotics inside host tissues and gastric cavities = direct interactions with the host underpin their probiotic role. We also increase knowledge on the identity of coral-associated microbes.
