Environmental Microbial Evolution Methods and Protocols: new book edited by Haiwei Luo many interesting topics on deep-time prokaryote evolution link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Excited in teaching courses in the field of environmental science? Our newly established Earth and Environmental Sciences Programme (EESC) at The Chinese U of HK has a lecturer / assistant lecturer position. The closing date is Oct 21. tinyurl.com/5fp75j2x

We have an exciting PhD opening (tinyurl.com/mvvh3fzv) in collaboration with Laura Falkenberg and Bayden D. Russell. If you are interested in microbial evolution, population genomics, symbiosis, seafood probiotics, and global change biology, please contact us.

New post-doc opportunity! Discover how the microbiome of marine mussels could make them more resilient to stress. In collaboration with Haiwei Luo and Laura Falkenberg jobs.hku.hk/en/job/520498/… Marine Futures Lab The Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) HKU

We're looking for a Post Doc to work on marine mussels and microbiomes. Just over two weeks before we begin reviewing applications

new work bioRxiv: #CBASS as a standardized screening tool to measure thermal tolerance phenotypes following microbiome manipulation on #Aiptasia. Kudos to Melanie Dörr & coauthors Universität Konstanz doi.org/10.1101/2023.0… next step: isolate & test & #MetaG 'good' microbes :D

Excited to share our new preprint (tinyurl.com/ke5jjj6u) with Sishuo Wang . It 'borrows' many eukaryote fossils to calibrate bacterial evolution. The idea is straightforward - the bacterial symbionts cannot be older than their eukaryote hosts.

We're still considering applications for this PhD position exploring the role microbes could play in sustainable seafood under global climate change. Info here: tinyurl.com/mvvh3fzv. If you or someone you know is interested, contact us ASAP! Haiwei Luo Bayden D. Russell

Excited to share our new preprint tinyurl.com/yrjtafn3 with Ferdi Hellweger. Using ABM modeling, we show the ancestral effective population size was unusually small when major genome reduction occurred in Prochlorococcus.
