Thrilled to share our new story. While cooperation can evolve from autonomy, can a mutualistic cooperation reversely evolve to autonomy? We observed this reversion in experimental evolution of a microbial consortium, mediated by HGT! Summary thread below doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

Congratulations Andrés Velásquez-Parra 🤩👏

So delighted to see JB Raina get this prize - I'm sure Alma would have approved.

As of now, researchers in Switzerland can – for the first time in three years – apply for an ERC Advanced Grant from #HorizonEurope. 🗓️ The call will be ongoing until 29 August. Full association with the programme remains crucial for Swiss #science and the Swiss #economy.

Postdoc position available in my lab in Southern France - If you are interested in the role of crosstalk in marine microbial interactions in sea anemones, please apply before 5 July! #coralreef #microbiology Université Perpignan criobe_pf Job offer below. Pls share! 🪸🧫🧬

A few familiar faces of the lab here 😀

Natural experiments, like the closure of the Isthmus of Panamá, can reveal the fascinating mechanisms of bacterial evolution. Our new paper shows how horizontal gene transfer helped chemosynthetic symbionts survive in the Caribbean Sea after this event. journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…

Interested in studying algae-bacteria interactions? Excited by microbial ecology, biogeochemistry and mathematical modeling? Want to be part of a fun collaboration between our lab and the amazing Yeala Shaked at IUI-Eilat? We are looking for students... please RT
