Deep-sea mussel cells from a tidal environment at -1700 m possess a circadian (~24h) clock. We have a new paper out in @emboreports.org and I am very proud of it.. It is really matching my motivation: doing fun science with good people!

Endogenous rhythms in deep-sea mussel cell culture and molecular clock characterization - EMBO Reports
While biological rhythms are crucial to life, the deep sea has long been considered an arrhythmic exception. However, at hydrothermal vents - devoid of diel cues yet shaped by tides - the mussel Bathy...

The #deepsea.. Laterally a very vast subject. 70% of our planet is covered by oceans.. Actually, we talk mostly about deep oceans, that cover 66% of Earth. In volume, they would represent ~93% of the biosphere.. And we are pretty ignorant of how they work..

I have been standing in limbo between the bird and the blue sky for a bit. Which kinda makes sense from an ornitho point of view. Was very busy with - cool -benchwork and writing. Puzzled by the way the world goes. Figuring out the future social media options..
