Welcome to the website!

by Maria Kahlert and Sarah Spaulding |

Welcome to the new International Society for Diatom Research (ISDR) website!

After over a year of development, the core webteam (Sarah Spaulding, Keely Mills, Hannah Hartung, Ingrid Juettner, Maria Kahlert, with Kevin Cooper from The Big Idea) is delighted to announce this new site.

We hope that this new version of the website brings our international members and friends together around diatom science. Our team worked on bringing the many activities of our members together into this single meeting place. Manage your society membership, access our journal Diatom Research, and stay current with research opportunities. Explore the pages for news, happenings, courses, jobs, grants, scholarships, the Diatom of the Month, and Young ISDR. We hope that the new ISDR website will serve as a forum to inspire and support your professional career.

Have fun exploring the resources on the site.

Be in touch. Let us know about your news worth sharing! We welcome your feedback and ideas for making this website work for you.
