Amazing talk by @microbiobits.bsky.social from @tonigabaldon.bsky.social lab on another possible model of eukaryogenesis based on proteome evolution #ESEB2025

A pleasure and an honor to have been able to present such a keystone of my PhD with so many researchers I look up to 🥺

Closing the session, Saioa Manzano-Morales @microbiobits.bsky.social from the Barcelona supercomputing center, told us about their recent inferences of gene origins in the context of eukaryogenesis. Read more here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #ESEB2025

@markhamillofficial.bsky.social Many thanks for the like 🙏 Penguins thank you too🐧🐧🐧

Surely one of the all-time best conference outreach activities: an evolution-inspired decorated street for Les Festes de Gràcia #ESEB2025

Amazing evolutionary biology outreach at the Fiestas de Gràcia in Barcelona. @rawwiberg.bsky.social explained that not everything we assume about sex is a given and that we can learn a lot from the exceptions. #ESEB25

Interested in #AsgardArchaea? I know I am! Today at #ESEB2025 I will be at poster 082 explaining my work on how they got such huge genomes and what this can tell us about the road to eukaryogenesis @eseb2025.bsky.social

People getting turned away from #museomics session! Full house! #eseb2025

The day finished off strong with loads of great talks in the Genomics of Evolutionary Innovations symposium! I'm pleased to report that my talk went well ☺️ 🎨🖌️ #eseb2025 #eseb #esebconference @eseb2025.bsky.social @jfenn.bsky.social @timothyfuqua.bsky.social

Time is flying at #ESEB2025! Can’t wait for the next days ahead! 🚀

Pretty cool art at the #evoke art corner at #eseb2025

The first paper from my PhD is out now! doi.org/10.1111/jeu.... We describe a new photosynthetic #Paulinella species from a brackish beach in British Columbia 🇨🇦 Big thanks to the co-authors Maia Palka and @alive-in-the-ocean.bsky.social, and my supervisor @fburki.bsky.social #protistsonsky

Ahead of #eseb2025 we had a nice reunion of some ex- and current members of the group! Nice to see you all!

“Isolation of a new methanotroph belonging to Mycobacterium” is now out! Awesome work by my former postdoc Hiromi Kambara, who led this project all the way. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

If you’re interested in the genome dynamic of these funky little archaea, I’ll be presenting a poster at @eseb2025.bsky.social !

Today is Asgard Friday! So happy that the project that has taken a big chunk of my PhD journey is out as a preprint (for now!) “Phylogenomics of Asgard archaea reveals a unique blend of prokaryotic-like horizontal transfer and eukaryotic-like gene duplication” www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Great opportunity to contribute during #ESEB2025 to scientific outreach!

Just hours before the end of the early bird, registrations are rapidly going up. We had an overwhelming response to the abstract. call (>2000) and the possibility of reaching the capacity limit is not so unlikely. So better hurry up to secure your spot at #ESEB2025 eseb2025.com/registration/

(1/14) ¿Has probado alguna vez a trazar tu árbol genealógico? Es un ejercicio interesante para entender tus raíces, a pesar de que se complica cuantas más generaciones atrás intentas llegar… Imagínate un árbol así, pero a escala de toda la vida en la Tierra. #HiloDivulgación

If you submitted an abstract for the #ESEB2025 Congress, it's time to check your inbox and your abstract submission portal! 👀 🔔 Find out if your abstract has been selected. 🧬 We’re looking forward to seeing your research come to life in #Barcelona!  #EvolutionaryBiology
