Looking forward to #ESEB2022 and presenting a poster in S25 symposium (poster 407), together with Felipe Kauai (404) and Frederik Mortier (415) about our work on polyploid establishment 🪴🌱🌺

On my way to #ESEB2022 to present results from a eco-evo face-off between invading Duckweed polyploids and their ancestral population in experimetal microcosms. You can visit my poster (nr 415) and related work of Silvija Milosavljevic and Felipe Kauai (404, 407).

Just finished a great team building week. A perfect mix between brainstorming and having fun together!

In the latest issue of Science Magazine , our lab's work (and that of amazing colleagues in the field) is featured in two separate highlights about #polyploidy ! 1) Polyploidy shapes organs: science.org/doi/full/10.11… 2) Polyploidy as a stress response: science.org/content/articl…

Excited and honored to participate in team building retreat with Yves Van de Peer's lab in Clairmarias, France this week! Amazing research talks plus lots of time for informal interactions, beach trip, boat ride & more! I will stay in Gent until Nov. 30. pic.x.com/4nly1t7920

Fantastic 3 day research team building retreat of Yves Van de Peer & Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Genomics (BEG) Lab in France. Mornings: Trainees gave interesting & amazing research talks. Afternoons: beach trip, boat ride & duckweed collection, spectacular aquarium. Great start to my 3 month sabbatical visit!

A great team building week finished in the North of France (Clairmarais)! See some of our photos here: vandepeerlab.org/?q=research/br…

Exciting and productive start to my 89 day sabbatical visit to Yves Van de Peer's lab, Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Genomics (BEG) Lab, with lab team building retreat in France. Now at his lab @PSB_VIB in Gent & meeting more people from other labs: Vandepoele lab @vandepoelelab.bsky.social, Steven Maere & others!

Fascinating & enjoyable 2 days of excellent research talks by @PSB_VIB grad students & postdocs (last Thurs & Fri). Great place for my sabbatical visit to Yves Van de Peer's Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Genomics (BEG) Lab, Vandepoele lab @vandepoelelab.bsky.social & Steven Maere!

Congratulations to Xiao Ma, a PhD student in Yves Van de Peer’s Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Genomics (BEG) Lab at @PSB_VIB, for successfully defending her thesis! At her public defence, Xiao presented her project on seagrass genomes & answered questions from the jury & me. Reception & dinner to celebrate Dr. Ma!

We are pleased to show our freshly published review article in the polyploidy special issue of Oikos . We review polyploid establishment and show how coexistence theory can help to undertstand it. doi.org/10.1111/oik.09…

🌿 The team from Yves Van de Peer at @PSB_VIB studied the effect of Whole Genome Duplication on the plant metabolome. This effect has remained largely unexplored and shines new light on the impact of polyploidy. 🔍 ➡️ Read more: vibbio.tech/3SxvzCs
