Asbestos has long been the retroactive bane of building constructors and environmental engineers alike, due to contamination and spread.

Now, University of Pennsylvania scientists have found that extremophiles such as D. palaeochoriense are able to break down the iron in asbestos through anaerobic respiration and reduce its toxicity massively.

Last week I presented my work at the International Workshop at the Mexican Network of ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ„

I study how the coral's mycobiome react to the Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease.

I would love to meet some ! Feel free to reach out ๐Ÿ˜
