Dr Juan Diego Gaitan-Espitia and his team at The Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) HKU are using genetic research to restore seagrass meadows by cultivating and transplanting strong seagrass to other coasts. Watch below to hear his story: bit.ly/3mbV8vn


Congrats Bovern Suchart Arromrak for the #Early #Career #Award from the Malacological Society of London to support his #research on #animal #Symbiosys & #Microbiome in marine molluscs living in extreme #environments Very proud supervisor! Check more of his work π biorxiv.org/content/10.110β¦

It is my first time to attend an international conference. I was very happy to share my study on the bacterial diversity and communities in tropical marine habitats. And I got really good suggestions for my study! Thank you so much! 6th World Conference on Marine Biodiversity iBEER Lab Juan Diego Gaitan Espitia π¨π΄ππ°


Plasticity can assist #conservation efforts in the face of #climate change. When, how and why? Amazing work led by 2 forces (Jenni Donelson & Rebecca Fox) integrating plasticity into management/practice. #biodiversity The Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) HKU HKU_Science The University of Hong Kong NatureClimate

Still time to apply to our #postdoc & #research assistant posts #seagrass #restoration & #BlueCarbon. Join the iBEER Lab & help us to recover #biodiversity & #coastal #ecosystem services in #HongKong!

Fresh out of the lab! Do intrinsic & extrinsic regulatory mechanism interact to promote thermal physiological resilience in #Tropical intertidal #ectotherms ?Congrats Bovern Suchart Arromrak for another #PhD chapter out ππ₯³

#Pharmaceuticals x #mental #Health are continuously discharged to #aquatic #environments affecting animal #physiology & #behavior. Zhenzhen Li shows that these #chemicals can also alter thermal #tolerances & plasticity of microscopic algae in the #ocean! authors.elsevier.com/a/1it44B8cd0L1n
