Thanks to every single human (and coral!) who has come through The Davies Lab- this is thanks to you!
It has been a privilege to do fun science w/you & each of you has taught me how to be a better mentor. Cheers to more growth and discovery!

Save the date: The next International Coral Reef Symposium will be held 19-24 July 2026 in Auckland, New Zealand.

Join our team! We have a funded Blue Carbon Canada Postdoc position (bluecarboncanada.ca). The PDF will assess scenarios for Canada's blue carbon ecosystems under climate change (temp, SLR) & local stressors, co-supervised by me, OConnorLab, Sara Knox! Pls RT 🇨🇦🌡️🏙️🗾💻

New paper! 'Should I stay or should I go? Coral bleaching from the symbionts' perspective' Congrats Dr. Carly Scott onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/el…

New paper out! BUMP's Dr. Sarah W. Davies and Dr. Hannah Aichelman featured in Ecology and Evolution on a study of mortality events and their effects on genetic expression responses of corals and algae. Read more here: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Really honored to have received the International Coral Reef Society Early Career Award! Feels pretty unreal. Thanks for the nominations and thanks to The Davies Lab folks who helped make this happen!

As a previous MSC fellow, this a fantastic opportunity. If you consider to work on Littorina (or other interesting marine organism) in the shiny Portugal and be part of an enthusiastic research group (SEAGEN) that want to lots of cool evolutionary stuff, please contact me!

Expeditions can be hard to maneuver as a mother & scientist.

Intense & exciting to have my essay published in The New York Times exploring how Expeditions can be an Academic Act of Defiance

Hi coral tweeps - can anybody ID these? (Caribbean)

Perhaps a little late, but I am happy to report that I will be starting on the tenure track at Bates College in Environmental Studies this summer! Casey and I have both accepted TT positions.

Back in Bocas with this dream team and it feels so good!
