Excited and grateful, earlier this month I started my INTERN Fellowship, allowing me to spend the next three months working on elucidating relationships of bacteria and coral at the USGS - Honolulu Field Station under the mentorship of Dr. Thierry Works and his amazing team!

🌊🦠 Excited to share our latest findings on Diadema antillarum scuticociliatosis! Our research reveals how sympatric habitats serve as reservoirs for the pathogenic ciliate. We also explore possibilities for resurgence and associated microbes.
