Matthews et al. show that bacterial partners supply essential metabolites to the vital microalgal symbionts of corals, including metabolites that boost symbiont growth. Jennifer Matthews David J Suggett UTS FutureReefsLab HFSP nature.com/articles/s4146…

Time for a pre-spawning coral check before the big event next week!🪸 👶 Huge thanks to GBRbiology and Reef Magic pontoon for hosting me today 🧡 Pure Ocean

Bacteria support the photosynthetic performance and stress tolerance of coral’s algal endosymbionts 🪸🧫 Check out the next paper in our series of Symbiodiniaceae-bacteria interactions 🤝 @uts_engage UTS C3 Thank you @hfsp for supporting this work 🧡 nature.com/articles/s4159…

Time for another spawnathon! We are taking our #coral baby food out to the reef, to give the baby corals a fighting start to life on the reef 🪸👶🍼 Watch this space as our research unfolds #coral #spawning Laura La Motta FutureReefsLab UTS supported by Pure Ocean

Full PhD scholarship available in beautiful Coffs Harbour to study kelp and coral responses to marine heatwaves. Great team and location. Contact me for more information and to apply 😀

Come join our team in the FutureReefsLab in an exciting role to support our G20 CORDAP project! 🪸

Warming impacts 🌡️from climate change are devasting Australia’s marine life - including our incredible coral reefs 🪸 Read our Aust Coral Reef Soc letter 👇 calling on the Government to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide australiancoralreefsociety.org/acrs-letter-ca… We must act now.

Always proud to celebrate our incredible Team members on this International Day of Women and Girls in Science 👩‍🔬🧪Especially lucky to be constantly inspired by our fearless Female team leaders Dr Emma Camp and Dr Jen Matthews Jennifer Matthews #WomenInScience

So proud of Laura La Motta - it was by no means a small feat doing all that Symbiodiniaceae culturing under different temperatures 🥵🥶and nutrients 🥦🍔, while learning lipidomics on top! If only corals were as resilient as Laura… 💪🫶 FutureReefsLab UTS C3

Speaking of super students… This is Tash Bartels, who due to a miscommunication, managed to pull off a game-changing experiment (on coral spawning no less) with ONE DAY’S notice. 8 days down & she’s still here running the experiment until midnight. 💪🪸👶

Our G20 CORDAP work is underway! With Christine Ferrier-Pages, Jennifer Matthews Joseph Henry, PhD and many more! Awesome to be able to upscale our trials with industry partners🪸🪸🪸UTS Science UTS C3

Have you ever heard of #coral baby food?! To stop coral bleaching and maintain the Earth’s coral reefs, 🌍 and Jennifer Matthews are working to feed coral larvae to promote their survival on the #GreatBarrierReef. Marissa Locke Rottinghaus has the story: asbmb.org/asbmb-today/sc….

I’m earning below min wage as a PhD student because I’m a “rent seeking scientist who profits from the reef”, not because there is a multitude of peer-reviewed evidence that our reefs (including the GBR) is dying.

Great way to spend a Saturday! Fantastic talk by @FutuReefslab lead Emma Camp at this years #RZSNSWforum UTS UTS C3
