Such a nice day yesterday! Núria, a previous PhD student, came back to the Institute to give an Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE) seminar and she got a rockstar welcome!

It wasn’t just for her impressive science on #choanoflagellates (now at Thibaut Brunet's lab) but also for the lasting positive…

Interesting results! Polyploidy is fixed in a population under selection pressure for bigger sizes. The MuLTEE saga continues! Congrats Will Ratcliff & authors! #evolution #experimentalevolution #yeast

Interested in exploring evolution, cell biology, & ecology of #protists in a Mediterranean setting? 🌊🔬 Barcelona hosts a vibrant cluster of interconnected protist labs! 🌿🧪

Meet the teams at Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE): Daniel J. Richter, del Campo Lab, and ours; plus Ramiro Logares & Ramon Massana at…

Limited early-bird registration discounts are available until 30th April!!!

Unveiling the intricate dance of genes in time and space! This study explores how temporal chromatin remodeling orchestrates neural diversity in the developing spinal cord 🧬🧠. Important to our question ( #amimalorigins ) too, because we need to know more about the potential…

It is my pleasure to host at Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE) the BlastocystisCOST Training school “Blastocystis and the Gut Microbiome”. We will be teaching #microbiome analysis strategies and methods until Friday 🙌 #protists

Nematode-trapping #fungi use G protein-coupled receptors to detect worm-derived cues🪱, triggering mechanisms that enable them to capture prey

This work sheds light on cross-kingdom interactions mediated by pheromones🍄🪱

Such beautiful microscopy!😍🔬

New research on the sponge Clathria prolifera reveals ancient protein domains that might have kickstarted cell adhesion and allorecognition in animals.🧬Congrats @sanichols_DU, Xavier et al!! #evolution #AnimalOrigins #sponges #celladhesion

Still some days to apply to PhD positions in our lab 👇

♥️ Juli Juli Pereto 🍊! ♥️Sant Jordi too! #traditions #generosity #books #evolution

Looking for a short-term intro to research? Interested in how single-celled organisms evolved into complex multicellular life? Join our project on #ichthyosporeans , close relative to animals 🧬 Explore our offers (AEINT24_EX_1296 or 1298). There are other great offers at…

Looks like time travel at Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE)! 🕰️ Two PhD students from different eras joined in a science communication adventure. From Konstantina Mitsi Konstantina's digital guidance to Gonzalo Bercedo Gonzalo's live teaching, the #Treescape game is a hit to explain #biodiversity to visiting…

Very relevant for our research and for #metabarcoding surveys in general. To be able to use #nanopore for full-length 18S ribosomal environmental DNA sequencing will be great for microbial ecology! #biodiversity

🧬🔬 Nice dive into how #metagenomics & single-cell genomics are revolutionizing our understanding of the tree of life by Laura Eme & Daniel Tamarit 🧬 #MicrobialDiversity #genomics #singlecell #biodiversity #protists

Using experimental #evolution to reveal the processes that occur during the origins of #endosymbiosis

Brilliant overview by Brockhurst/Cameron/Beckerman ! PLOS Biology

We love the work done at Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE) by our colleagues. And this is a great example! See the amazing dermal #fluorescence of Arabian Stenodactylus and Trigonodactylus #geckos .🦎✨ And with potential intriguing implications for intraspecific signaling in these ancient desert…

Announcing our new #collection on #symbiosis across the tree of life.

You can find all of the articles in the collection here: plos.io/3UncV1j

Thrilled to welcome Ana Ana Burgos Ruiz from Juan Tena lab Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo , for a 2-week research stage with us! 🌟 Under the guidance and expertise of Marta Álvarez, Ana will dive into genomics methods 🧬. We're excited for this exchange of knowledge and hope it enriches us…

Our colleagues at the Biodiversity program here at Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE) have organized an amazing session on #biodiversity . #BiodIBErsityDay2024

Exciting news! Marina and Vika are joining our quest to uncover hidden animal relatives. Marina will do her PhD, co-supervised by Vika victoria shabardina focusing on bridging the gap from sequences to living organisms. Welcome aboard, Marina and Vika! The #Magnificent8 are waiting…
