My research focuses on the response of coral reef organisms to environmental change. The Fine laboratory uses a multi-stressor approach to examine how coral reefs are likely to change in the near future under environmental change. Only a few footsteps from the Red Sea reef, our group combines field, aquaria and laboratory experiments to answer key questions as to the future of this magical ecosystem.
