Thank you for theinteresting talk, I agree thatmicrobes are challenging tostudy because of theirdiversity and sizes. I hope
we have more developed
techniques to study them inthe future.

It is really interesting tolistening your presentation.
I am interested aboutmodeling of energy in thefood webs and how microbes
affect metabolism in higher
animals. If you can find any
source for how microbes
accumulate in fish gut,
please let me know. Thankyou.

Thanks for the nice andclear presentation on
marine plankton. It was ahighly interested andinteractive session. Thanks
again.

Thank you for an interestingand exciting lecture. As i ama microbiologist, This lecture
inspired me to try modellingfor changing of microbe in
my research field.

Thank you for your special lecture,
Prof. Coleen Moloney!
Hi Dr. Coleen,
Thank you very much foryour presentation.
I learnt a lot from yourpresentation. Not justabout scientific research,
but also how to present
and explain in a wellorganized andstraightforward way. The
ongoing research aboutpicoplankton community
structure and parasiticdinoflagellate Sundials isvery intriguing to me,
because I am interested in
dinoflagellate diversity
and its role in the foodweb. It makes me thinkthat the biotic interactions
in a plankton community
is significantly more
complex than traditional
thinking (theenvironmental factors arealso important though),and it would be something
I need to contemplate.
I genuinely hope to hearmore about the researchin your lab in the future.
All the best.

Thank you so much for yourclear and easy-understoodpresentation! I really learnt
a lot and thank you for youradvice on connecting top
predators with the microbialcommunity! I am very
interested to read morestudies about the
microorganisms! Hope to see
more amazing findings fromyour interdisciplinary team,and I really love the view
you are enjoying everyday
in the Cape town! I hope I
can visit someday!!
Yumeng Pang

Thank you very much foryou great talk. I think I
learned more about
microplankton from yourtalk and I also found somemicroplankton species thatare interesting.

Thank you for yourwonderful talk and I
learned more detailed
knowledge about the ocean
food web and microbialloop.

Dr. Moloney,
thank you very much forthe excited talk! I wasstrongly encouraged byyour team collaboration(ecologists andmicrobiologists), and I think
your work will fill the big
gap of our knowledge of themicrobes in the marine
ecosystem: not only to themicrobial loop, but also to
the classic food web.
Fanyu Zhou

Thank you for your special
lecture. I could learn a lot
new through you .
Although I'd never heard
many terms (e.g., "oceanmicrobiome") and jargon(e.g., "OMIC hierarchy")
before your lecture, I could
have interest in the microworld in the ocean because
you shared many images
that helped me understandthe outline of researches.
Yudai Hanzawa

I enjoyed today's seminar. It
was fantastic. Thank you somuch.
Orimura Shogo

Thank you so much foranswering my question, I
agree that energy or materialtransferred by microbial foodloop in whole food web ismore important in open
ocean than coastal area.
Bin XieThank you for an interestingpresentation.
I learned that microbes havewide range of size and I’minterested that they havevarious roles in marine
ecology. You showed how
biomass increase after
upwelling for each size ofphytoplankton. I wonder
what makes difference intheir biomass change among
each size of plankton.
I’m very grateful for learning
the world of microbes. Thankyou again.
Takehito NAKAMURA

Thank you for yourwonderful lecture.
My research focuses on
global-scale ocean
biogeochemical cycle
modeling, but I am not yet
familiar with microbiomes.
As you said, I also think that
our community also needs
cross-disciplinary
discussions.
