🎉Congratulations to @ccapoban for an amazing 20

🎉Congratulations to @ccapoban for an amazing 20 years at SAMS! • The Culture Collection of Algae and Protozoa (CCAP), one of the world’s most biodiverse collections, is marking 20 years here at SAMS in Oban.

Since its arrival in 2004, the historic collection has grown by 1,303 strains and over 13,000 samples have been sent to researchers, schools, and businesses in more than 100 countries—from the Azores to Gambia and Fiji.

CCAP’s collection, which includes microalgae, protozoa, and seaweed, supports research in everything from medicine to sustainable food and beauty products.

CCAP is supported by UK Research and Innovation’s Natural Environment Research Council @nercscience.

🐬Online Talk: Marine Mammal Research in Western

🐬Online Talk: Marine Mammal Research in Western Scotland - Bottlenose Dolphins and Acoustic Insights. Wednesday 11th December 2024, 6.30pm to 7.30pm.

Join us online for a fascinating seminar by SAMS marine mammal researcher Nienke Van Geel (SAMS) who will talk about bottlenose dolphins in the Sound of Barra and acoustic findings of marine mammals west of the Outer Hebrides.

This event is part of a four-talk series run by the Genesis Project, a community climate initiative exploring how climate change affects Scotland’s coastal communities.

This event is free to attend but booking is essential. For access to this event please register via link in bio.

🎧 Why all the fuss about plankton..? 'Out of si

🎧 Why all the fuss about plankton..? 'Out of sight, out of mind' is a phrase that fits plankton perfectly. Despite being a crucial part of the global ecosystem, we know little about these organisms. As a result, scientists are worried we don't know how a changing climate is affecting them and, ultimately, what that will mean for the planet.

Listen to the latest SAMS Ocean Explorer podcast episode, 'Plankton: Earth's hidden hero', with plankton experts Prof Paul Tett and Dr Callum Whyte.

How does the 'plankton pump' save us from the worst effects of global warming? What changes can we measure? And what IS all the fuss about plankton..?!

📣Funded PhD opportunity at SAMS 🎄 Christmas

📣Funded PhD opportunity at SAMS 🎄 Christmas Island land crabs 🦀"Combined effects of climate change and metal exposure to physiological adaptation in early life stages of Christmas Island land crabs in wetland ecosystems."

Christmas Island’s wetlands are globally significant but face threats from phosphate mining and climate-driven stressors. This project examines crab resilience to pollutants and climate impacts through lab and field studies. Partnering with @conventiononwetlands, JNCC, and @parksaustralia, it aims to inform conservation policy and adaptive management.

Supervisory team includes Dr Helena Reinardy of SAMS and Prof Alistair Boxall, @uniofyork and Dr Lucy Turner, @plymuni.

Essential skills include: molecular biology and/or physiological laboratory experience, experimental aquatic biology, field work, and data analyses.

For more information, see link in bio to our "Find a PhD" page.

📢 NEW FULLY-FUNDED PHD! • Building resilient

📢 NEW FULLY-FUNDED PHD! • Building resilient Kelp cultivars via priming with multiple environmental stressors

Lead Supervisor/Director of Studies: Dr Puja Kumari
Supervisory Team: Dr Tim Regan, Prof. Michele Stanley
Application deadline: 6 January 2025 at noon, GMT

This PhD will combine physiology, fieldwork and bioinformatics to tackle key challenges in marine restoration and sustainable aquaculture while gaining diverse lab and field skills. Although based at SAMS, the successful candidate will be involved in field trials in Kilchoan.

The studentship aims to develop priming strategies in kelps to enhance stress resilience, understand the physiological, molecular and epigenetic adaptation mechanisms and test the developed stress resilience in field trials for ecosystem services.

The project is a part of E5 Doctoral Training Partnership with the @edinburghuniversity.

To apply, and to find out more, see our PhD link in bio.

What a year it's been for SAMS and @thinkuhi stude

What a year it's been for SAMS and @thinkuhi student Logan Andrick, who devised a plan to build semi-autonomous robotic surface vehicles to capture plastic waste.

After winning a UHI Business Competition award, and partnering with accelerator programmes, he continues to develop his idea - all while completing his BSc Marine Science!
