Understanding how bacteria help convert glacier bedrock into soil could help address desertification.

Corals living in highly saline waters may be more tolerant to rising water temperatures.

Seagrass meadows play a pivotal role in protecting coasts against rising sea levels.

Safety assurance is the first step in bringing valuable wastewater into use, says Peiying Hong.

A comparison of the genomes of two species of coral demonstrates unexpected genetic diversity.

The protein CD34 is predominantly regarded as a marker of blood-forming stem cells but it helps with migration to the bone marrow too.

Genomes of single microbial cells isolated from the Red Sea could yield a goldmine for biotechnology.

The Red Sea has relatively low amounts of floating plastic debris in its surface waters due to fewer sources or faster removal.

Jumping genes could make an alga, and its coral host, more tolerant to warming sea temperatures.

Pierre Magistretti, Distinguished Professor of Bioscience and Dean of the Biological and Environmental Science Division, talks to us on Facebook Live about how he first became interested in the brain and reflects on more than 30 years of experience in the field of brain energy metabolism.

The Biological & Environmental Science & Engineering Division is very pleased to announce the appointment of yet another exemplary faculty - Prof. Christian Froekjaer Jensen.

Treating wastewater with solar irradiation shows promise in reducing two E. coli strains but a resilient strain persists.

The Biological & Environmental Science & Engineering Division is very pleased to announce the appointment of Prof. Simon Krattinger.

Promising electrochemical technologies for cleaning wastewater are boosted by discovery of extremophilic microbes in the Red Sea.

A method for creating nanoparticles without using solvents could lead to environmentally friendly electronics.

The world’s warmest sea is heating up faster than the global average, which could challenge the ability of the Red Sea’s organisms to cope.

A combination of morphological and molecular approaches gives researchers a first glimpse of Red Sea larval fish communities.

Microbes are dispersed widely over the oceans with islands acting as stepping-stones to help transport of land-based organisms.

Symbiotic giant bacteria enable Red Sea surgeonfish to specialize their diets.

Emerging technologies are poised to transform how we observe the Earth.
