Reefs contribute to medical breakthroughs — organisms found in them produce compounds used to treat cardiovascular disease and some types of cancer. Elsewhere, laboratories are breeding corals to withstand heat and ocean acidification. Researchers are racing to salvage what’s left of corals and the ecosystems they support.
