Our new perspective is out "An integrative framework for sustainable coral reef restoration" @OneEarth_CP - the need to build #reefrestoration around #sustainedfinancing & #socialecologicalsystems - most constructive reviews ever! 📷 @CoralNurture doi.org/10.1016/j.onee…
I'm excited to share that I'll be starting an Assistant Professor of Marine Biology position at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi this fall. Stay tuned for research updates, opportunities, and all things marine larval ecology and aquaculture! @IslandCampus @AFS_ELHS 📸 credit @morganbs7

Just a pipe dream. #fishpuns From our @KAUST_News expedition in the Gulf of Aqaba 🪸
Finally - mass synchronized #coralspawning at #Shushah #RedSea #KRRI @pedrohcp bang-on full moon - started early with 1 sp. but then kicked off collectively late evening. Incredible to see here for the first time. More to come as we refine timings/species. 📷 Alex Stead
Big couple of nights with the team at Shushah Island - finally, the corals spawned!
Huge congratulations to Dr Robin Francis for the successful defense of her dissertation on reproductive ecology and dispersal ecology of two coral reef fishes 🍾 It has been a privilege 🙏 @robin_k_francis @BU_Biology @BUMPatBU
Evening shift begins to try to catch #coralspawning at #Shushah in the northern #RedSea - a real privilege to work in such a special place @RSRC_KAUST
I saw this crazy Red Sea troll snot a long time ago and never figured out exactly what it is. Some kind of sponge? Any ideas? #sciencetwitter #sponges #underwaterphotography
This is 🥳EVERYTHING🥳! Super special to be interviewed by my alma mater @UCLA about how dope my life has become! And, to be the anchor episode for an entire season of career-changers?! I'm overwhelmed and thrilled 🔗 spoti.fi/3TOMcsM #BruinsHelpingBruins #Podcast #Scuba

Sponges may be one of the most "primitive" multicellular animals, but their mechanisms for filter feeding are a wonder to behold. Here's an appreciation post for their critical contributions to reef ecology. Read more about these beauties at schmidtocean.org/cruise-log-pos…
It's a long #Monday morning. Here's a baby sea turtle I photographed last summer in the Red Sea. 🐢
A few more from last week! #coralreefs #redsea
Snippets from a very quick trip to Shushah Island, March '23 🏝️ youtube.com/watch?v=ekX2K5… via @YouTube
Just back from a great week with the @KAUST_News #KRRI team in the northern Red Sea - only had a few minutes in the water but what we did see was stunning. Thrilled to see more!
I only recruit prospective PhD students that have R01s
So a sample grape at the grocery store is socially acceptable but a sample cast in the bass pro fish tank is "wrong" and "illegal" make it make sense
Did you know if you hold an ermine up to your ear, you can hear what it’s like to be attacked by an ermine?
