Capolavoro 🎨 alert 🚨! What is the role of gene body methylation in invertebrates? Despite extensive speculation linking it to plasticity and environmental responses, its mechanistic effects and heritability remain unclear. Our take out in @natecoevo.nature.com: www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/

Then, at the Origin of Metazoans in @sbroscoff.bsky.social I presented the promoter features of a Metazoan relative, Creolimax fragrantissima. The result of collaboration with @alexdemendoza.bsky.social, @borislenhard.bsky.social and @bzunar.bsky.social

I am happy and extremely proud to be able to contribute to this work with Irène Amblard and @vmetzis.bsky.social, where by changing one motif we completely rewired the function of a regulatory element!🔬🧬 Now out in Developmental Cell!

One last thanks to the #TCTeAC organisers, especially @svobodalab.bsky.social‬. And shoutout to all whom I met throughout the killing game: @majakuzman.bsky.social for organising, @da-bar.bsky.social for bodyguarding, @valeriyk1.bsky.social for scouting, @itaiyanai.bsky.social for enabling, /1

@bzunar.bsky.social didn't anthropomorphize genes - it's clearly a duck 🦆 #TCTeAC #theconferencetoendallconferences

The guys with the best calligraphy skills at #TCTeAC <33

@bzunar.bsky.social and I are first to the YMCA camp for the grand finale of the @woodstocknightsci.bsky.social #TCTeAC #theconferencetoendallconferences
