Thanks again to all the team members, friends, reviewers, and the editors. Numerous people, visibly and invisibly, contributed to it. Our new paper Okinawa Times (in Japanese) News and Views, Nature Aging (in English) 研究ユニット Membranology Unit 関連記事 A coral symbiont genome decoded for first time The Marine Genomics Unit has decoded the genome of the algae Symbiodinium minutum. This is a major advance in understanding the complex ecology of coral reefs. Splitting Species For one OIST biologist, bringing up oversized one-celled animals from the deep ocean is on par with peering at the small sculptures in an ant’s head. At first glance these animals appear to have nothing in common, but she’s found their evolutionary stories share common themes. OIST Applies for Establishment of the School Corporation and University Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Promotion Corporation (OIST) has applied for an approval of the establishment of the OIST School Corporation and the University to the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
