Revisiting mitogenome evolution in jellyfishes with eight new mitochondrial genomes on #WorldJellyfishDay by @lkcnhm @NUS_DBS @nustmsi @yalenus

Happy #WorldJellyfishDay! #Jellyfish are incredibly unique and beautiful creatures! Did you know that they have no brains, hearts, or bones? Instead, they have a nerve net to help them respond to changes in their environment! Come see our translucent friends @LKCNHM!

🇸🇬 So grateful to have spent last week with the @IUCNRedList Coral Specialists hosted by @NUSReef ! Busy but productive and also time to explore SG biodiversity above and below the water 🪸🐠
💡New skills ready to be employed in future research! – at Arnavutköy, İstanbul

🌴 In Singapore as invited assessor for the @IUCNRedList of corals. Hosted by the @NUSingapore and @NUSReef, we will be reviewing the status of 400+ Indo-Pacific corals by the end of the week.
🚨 New updated assessment will be online in 2024!

Here's a story about a field DNA barcoding study done by researchers from @NUSingapore.
⭐They collected marine animals by SCUBA diving & DNA barcoded them from a diving boat!⭐
Amazing work & detailed protocols!
