Giant viruses invade single-celled algae - vital to Earth's oxygen supply. Prof. Assaf Vardiโs team developed a new method to track algae infected by these microbial giants, with hope to better understand their impact on the ecosystem >> bit.ly/giant-virus-Eng @VardiLabโฆ

Being on a ship and collecting samples is not everything Constanze Kuhlisch from the @WeizmannScience (former @PohnertL, now @vardilab) likes about being a marine microbiologist. Read the interview with our editor @TobiasGoris below nature.com/articles/s4200โฆ
