I know it's only just ~two weeks in review with our recently re-submitted manuscript. But I am quite nervous as the first author is going into military service soon.. at the same time I am also excited to hear any news...

Amazing work.

The most intuitive and well written textbook out there. I use this extensively to teach basic principles of genetics and pop gen

A nitrogen-fixing organelle, or “nitroplast,” has been identified in a marine alga. This discovery sheds light on the evolutionary transition from endosymbiont to organelle.

Thrilled to share that our paper on the climate velocities in global mountain regions and species tracking has finally been published in Nature! I-Ching Chen Jonathan Lenoir nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our new paper in Molecular Biology and Evolution suggests that #aneuploidy can be an *evolutionary diversion* on the path to adaptation rather than a stepping stone.

Most Saccharomyces cerevisiae genomes are in fact distributed on different websites. Great effort to gather, assemble and annotate 2,507 of them. Until today, a total 3,024 diverse S. cerevisiae genomes are currently available!

super happy to share our latest work niceyeastlab on the evolution of shared alleles across yeast species led by Nicolò 🦖 (with Elena, Jonas, Anders Bergström) now in NatureEcoEvo: nature.com/articles/s4155…
super merci ANR Fondation pour la Recherche Médicale Région Sud

Our new work on #yeast #metabolic #evolution is out in PNASNews.
We uncovered a metabolic domestication syndrome in yeasts: different domesticated yeasts convergently evolved similar metabolite levels due to adaptation to human niches.

On international women’s day,as someone that attended more than 500 European Research Council (ERC) interviews in her panel,I can tell you that NO grantee has gotten her grant because she is a woman.I also celebrate today all LS1 women APPLICANTS and all LS1 women PANEL MEMBERS!You are AMAZING!🤩

The most artistic, mysterious and productive corner of the lab.

End of the beginning ? Chromosome ends of root-knot nematodes are quite different from everything else described so far in living forms...discover more by about their genomes by reading our paper just published in Nature Communications

Super happy to have met Ana Pontes and started a happy journey of digging more on alternative GAL networks, which have always been a fascinated topic in yeast
