Huge news ๐๐งฌ
The Protist 10,000 Genomes Project is joining the Earth BioGenome Project.
Protists may represent the majority of eukaryotic diversity โ yet only a tiny fraction have reference genomes.
Time to change that. ๐โจ

This is extremely alarming and is a direct result of climate change.
Our physiology is actually changing!

MicroSEA (Microbial Sea Eukaryotes) course is a one-week, field-based summer school to train early-career researchers in the diversity, ecology, and single-cell biology of marine protists. MicroSEA course integrates lectures, field sampling, and lab-based practicals in advanced techniques, such as flow cytometry, microscopy, culturing, and molecular analysis. The main objectives of MicroSEA course are: Fostering a deep understanding of marine protist diversity, ecology and biology; Providing hands-on training in advanced single-cell methods that are not commonly available in university programs; Building participants' confidence in designing and conducting research projects from field to data analysis; Promoting international collaborations and peer networking among students and speakers/trainers. The course will take place at the Station Biologique de Roscoff - SBR (France) - 7th to 12th of June, 2026 (arrival on the 6th, departure on the 13th). 20 participants will be selected, including 10 from EuroMarine member institutes. https://opbc.sciencesconf.org/
Protist lovers: Please apply for a week of rhapsody! Learn by doing:

The main laboratory of the Gulf Coast Repository (GCR). In the center are split sediment cores on tables, surrounded by scientific instrumentation. In the background a group of scientists is operating a core logger.
๐จWe're looking for two US-based undergrad-interns with geo background to work on research projects using GCR laboratory capabilities.
The internship includes a stipend, housing ,travel to/from College Station, travel/registration fees to present their work at AGU/GSA26.
