Calling all archaeal enthusiasts! 🔬🔥 From molecular machines to microbial communities, Archaea never fail to surprise us! We are excited to announce the 2026 EMBO Workshop on the Molecular Biology of Archaea, 6–10 July in Cambridge, UK! Sign up here: meetings.embo.org/event/26-arc... #ArchaeaSky

Tired of knowing what you are looking for in your tomograms? Why not try bluesky-less Frosina's new self-supervised algorithm for semantic segmentation and particle picking for #teamtomo (includes a new denoiser without the need for odd/even tomos) Code is on GitHub if you want to try it out

We are looking for an enthusiastic postdoc to investigate cellular dormancy and ribosome hibernation across plants, fungi, and mammals using #cryoET. If you are interested, apply here: careers.exeter.ac.uk/vacancies/66....

This surprisingly relaxing footage is from SIX MILES under the ocean – and it’s the deepest ecosystem yet discovered

Check out 🧐 our new preprint 📜: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Congrats🎉 to @vasilgaisin.bsky.social and Corina Hadjicharalambous, who studied contractile injection systems directly in hot spring♨️ bacterial mats🦠 #microsky #teamtomo #Chloroflexota

Our new preprint with a new #Asgard from stromatolites (and its Desulfobacterota companion). Complete circularised genomes of both, cool #cryoem images, protein modelling, etc Big group effort with a lot of people involved #archaeasky #archaea www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We’ve uncovered Asgard chromatin structures formed by a Hodarchaeal histone : closed hypernucleosome conserved in archaea and an open form resembling the H3-H4 eukaryotic octasome. Fantastic work by @harshranawat.bsky.social! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #Chromatin #Asgard #Archaea #cryoEM

🚨 NEW PAPER: must-read for researchers, funders & institutions 🚨 👩‍🔬 >50% of female dementia researchers experience sexism in their careers. 🏫 5x more respondents found their institution NOT helpful than helpful in addressing this. ➡️ Learn more: alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

So happy to finally see this published 🎊🎊🎊🎊Thanks again to my former supervisor @brfalcon.bsky.social and my co-first @stephfowler.bsky.social & the Duff Lab Go an have a read on either the paper or how alzforum reported on this part of my PhD journey
