Beautiful talk by Flora Vincent on an intriguing diatom-ciliate interaction in the ocean! #CGUE EMBLtrec

Evolution of Thylakoid Structural Diversity!🌱🦠🌍 Annemarie's deep dive🤿 into the wide wild world of photosynthetic complexes and thylakoid architecture and is now available open access Annual Reviews. She also made beautiful figures🎨. Check it out! annualreviews.org/content/journa…

@VernCarruthers and I had a great time writing this review pondering the versatility of key adaptations common to #apicomplexans, #dinoflagellates and other myzozoans that have made this group so prolific and successful. (1/3) journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mm…

Our #PlanExM preprint is out! #U-ExM from 200 eukaryotes across the tree of life! Made possible with the amazing @F_Mikus & Armando R Gautam Dey @CentrioleLab Omaya Dudin🍉¦ 🦠¦🔬¦ EMBL UNIGE_en tinyurl.com/PlanExM1

Loved this interview. So inspirational Virginie, loved your outlook on having a co-PI team, being a woman in science and good mentorship! @CentrioleLab

Brown algae (one of the 'big 5' lineages of complex MC) display a 'developmental hourglass' of gene expression. Animals, plants and fungi have independently evolved this developmental pattern, suggesting it is a general feature of complex MC. nature.com/articles/s4158…

So great to be in Heidelberg this weekend for the EMBO Fellows Meeting 2024! EMBO Fellows

More than 100 EMBO Fellows are meeting in Heidelberg. The postdoctoral fellows present their research, attend a mentoring session, receive training on a variety of topics and more. #EMBOat60

We celebrate Alena Zíková Alena Zikova, Claudia Langenberg, Oded Beja @BejaLab, Zoltán Molnár Zoltan Molnar and Ulrich Technau Ulrich Technau who join the EMBO Membership. Congratulations and welcome! #EMBOat60

Congrats Ulrich Technau 🤩

Happy to share our last publication to evaluate the diversity and ecology of the (mostly) uncultured MAST clades, an eclectic collection of very small unpigmented protists. How marine are Marine Stramenopiles (MAST)? A cross-system evaluation academic.oup.com/femsec/article…

Excited for all the good things to come in the Holt Lab! Congrats Corey Holt 🥂🥳

I'm extremely honoured and grateful to have received an European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator grant. So many people have supported this effort, from my wonderful lab and colleges to the reviewers and panel members - thank you everyone! Very excited to start this project! #ERCCoG

So proud to see our MATEdb2 paper beautifully led by Gemma Martínez Redondo highlighted in the cover of GBE (Genome Biology and Evolution)! If you're interested in animal phylogenomics, don't miss this handy resource. More details here 👇 Metazoa Phylogenomics Lab Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE)

We sequenced a bunch of understudied flagellates including apusomonads, ancyromonads and one Meteora strain. Here is our version of the eukaryotic tree including them. Our study is finally out in Current Biology 👇 authors.elsevier.com/c/1kDHa3QW8S6G…
