From the TREC Blog "My father passed away while I was working on TREC. Doing the work with others gave me the strength to carry on until I could return home to be with my family. It was a very sad time, but showed me how important this project & these people had become" www.embl.org/about/info/t...

Coastal sediments lining Europe’s shores hold a hidden archive of microbial biodiversity, past & present. As part of the TREC expedition, scientists collected samples from coastal sites across the continent. Meet Raffaele Siano, who leads TREC's work on coastal sediments www.embl.org/about/info/t...

Biology beyond conventional model organisms – a whole new world | EMBL

An EMBL | EMBO symposium explored the ‘wild frontiers’ of model organisms, from phytoplankton to sea anemones, waterstriders, roundworms, and more.

It's #WorldOceanDay – this year’s theme is: ‘Wonder: sustain what sustains us’. One key force sustaining ocean life is microbes. With @embl.org TREC we explored this hidden universe along Europe's coasts, across water, sediment and soil to see how microbial life connects across ecosystems and biomes

The Arctic is threatened by global heating and pollution: @taraoceans-science.bsky.social polar station will both lock into ice and float on water to support researchers in understanding these threats. TREC's Thomas Haize attended the vessel's inauguration in Lorient and shared these great pics!

Some marine microbes steal tiny structures called plastids from algae for photosynthesis, a relationship that may hold clues to how complex life first harnessed sunlight. TREC collaborator @ehehenberger.bsky.social has a great postdoc opp to study this in Ross Sea Dinoflagellates! 🗓️ Deadline: 17 May
