SPCMSC Researcher is first international guest interviewed on Australian ocean podcast series
Dr. Christina Kellogg (SPCMSC Research Microbiologist) was interviewed about her deep-sea research for a new episode of the podcast The Deep Blue: On My Doorstep. Kellogg’s episode kicks off the second series of this new podcast that debuted during Australia’s National Science Week in August 2020.
The podcast’s first series of 12 episodes focused on research being undertaken in Australia by leading marine experts, as an event for Australia’s National Science Week. Discussions are framed around marine places on researcher’s doorsteps that have inspired them and how their love of these places has influenced their life’s work. The podcast is freely available on iTunes, Spotify, and the University of New South Wales (UNSW) website. To read more, visit https://www.scienceweek.net.au/event/the-deep-blue-on-my-doorstep/.

Coral Microbial Ecology
The coral microbial ecology group has an active research program identifying and characterizing the microbial associates of both tropical and cold-water (deep-sea) corals and their surrounding habitat. Current projects focus on coral disease dynamics, bacterial diversity, and using metagenomics to elucidate the functional roles of coral microbes.DISCOVRE - Diversity, Systematics and Connectivity of Vulnerable Reef Ecosystems Project
This project uses amplicon sequencing, and functional microarrays to examine the microbiomes of several deep-sea coral species, with priority given to species that are also of interest to the population genetics group: Desmophyllum dianthus, Lophelia pertusa , Enallopsammia sp., and Acanthogorgia sp. The project also uses metagenomics to survey benthic habitats including coral mounds, cold seeps... - News
