At International DNA Day, 5 new genomes are released by EBPHK (comprising 8 universities in Hong Kong). Interesting species. eurekalert.org/news-releases… @CUHKGlobal @CUHKScience @CUHKofficial @hku_science @hkust @HongKongPolyU @CityUHongKong @HKBU_Science @lingnanuni @FEHD_EdUHK

International DNA Day launch for Hong Kong’s Moonshot for Biology

A significant portion of modern knowledge in biology has emerged through sequencing the genetic code of the world’s biodiversity, which to date has been largely uncharacterized and increasingly...

#Pharmaceuticals x #mental #Health are continuously discharged to #aquatic #environments affecting animal #physiology & #behavior. @ZhenzhenLi14 shows that these #chemicals can also alter thermal #tolerances & plasticity of microscopic algae in the #ocean! authors.elsevier.com/a/1it44…

Fresh out of the lab! Do intrinsic & extrinsic regulatory mechanism interact to promote thermal physiological resilience in #Tropical intertidal #ectotherms ?Congrats @bovernsuchart for another #PhD chapter out 👏🥳
Bovern Suchart Arromrak@bovernsuchart22 Feb 2024
I am delighted to share our recently published work on the influence of #thermal #fluctuations on intertidal animal #physiological #plasticity and #gut #microbiome. Many thanks to my supervisor @JDGaitanEspitia and my colleagues for their amazing support. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Plasticity can assist #conservation efforts in the face of #climate change. When, how and why? Amazing work led by 2 forces (@DrJDonel & @DrRebeccafox) integrating plasticity into management/practice. #biodiversity @SWIMSHKU @hku_science @HKUniversity @NatureClimate
Jenni Donelson@DrJDonel6 Jul 2023
Plasticity is a critical way by which species can response to #climate #change. So how can we put plasticity into practice for conservation management rdcu.be/dgd7A Thanks to @ThinkPlace for helping us run a successful #virtual #workshop #EcolAPP #CSIRO #plasticity

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! @WCMB2023 @iBEER_LAB @JDGaitanEspitia – at George Town, Pinang

Happy to share this study on the #museomics and #phylogenomics of #lovebirds. The #phylogeny indicates their ancestors likely colonized Madagascar from Australasia by trans-oceanic dispersals before arriving the African continent. authors.elsevier.com/a/1h8UX…

#seagrass #conservation & #restoration can be used as #blueCarbon projects to offset #CO2 emissions. However, quantification and translation to #carbon credits is complex and expensive, and needs more collaboration between scientists, public and private sectors. Daniel Friess
