My research currently focuses on developing molecular tools to better understand and predict harmful algal blooms (HABs) as part of the ACTNOW project. I have previously worked investigating macroalgae-bacteria interactions and post-harvest degradation kinetics of macroalgal biomass. I am also interested in extraction kinetics of lipid biomolecules during scale-up, the development/modification of industrial extraction methods … Read more
I am a PhD Student at the Marine Biological Association and The University of Plymouth. My research involves the development of techniques to ‘futureproof’ kelp restoration and look into the impact this may have on UK marine biodiversity. My previous research as a masters student and Research Technician at the MBA focused on the thermal … Read more
Prof. Linda K. Medlin has worked previously as Head of Research at Microbia Environnement, France, at the Observatoire Oceanologique of UPMC, France and at the AWI, Germany. She received Ph.D. from Texas A&M University in 1983 in marine botany. Her expertise is in marine phytoplankton and their evolution/phylogenetics. She has worked for over 20 years … Read more
I am a PhD student at the University of Southampton, currently working in Dan Smale’s research group. My research focuses on the diversity stability theory, specifically investigating how marine communities respond to disturbances such as Marine heatwaves (MHWs) and the role of community diversity driving these responses.Using existing biological and environmental data on rocky subtidal … Read more
My diverse skills, developed over 23 years of photography, have taken me from shooting in hailstorms in the UK to recording the experiences of those affected by conflict in NE Nigeria. My intimate storytelling makes people the agents of their own stories, and my eye-catching images have helped a wide range of national and international … Read more
