Professor Raquel S. Peixoto is a marine microbiologist from Brazil, the co-chair of the Coral Conservation Committee with the International Coral Reef Society and an associate professor at KAUST, leading a team of researchers and the students trying to better understand the microbiome associated with coral, essentially developing a microbial therapy to protect coral reefs. “Coral reefs are a unique and biodiverse ecosystems,” said Professor Peixoto during her recent interview with MTR TV. “About 32% of the named marine species depend on coral reefs, although they only cover a 0.1% of the ocean surface. On top of the immense importance of these ecosystems, biologically and ecologically speaking, they also protect our coast against waves and storms. About 90% of the height and energy of waves are actually minimized or dissipated by coral reefs.”
