We work on little bugs responsible for a big part of the oxygen you breathe: cyanobacteria, with special focus on Prochlorococcus and marine Synechococcus. Further information on our work: http://www.uco.es/cyanotrans/Home.html

Ok, here you have the Starter Pack. This is just the beginning, and we will be adding more researchers progressively.

Anyone good with marine flagellates? I thought this was quite a distinctive-looking chap with a reasonable chance of an ID? Any ideas?

I’m working on a project in SK, and I need someone that knows more than I do to validate a thesis and methodology.

Happy to share if anyone would like a quick read, just DM.
