I'm very happy with my Postdoc in Cuernavaca, what a great city, great lab team and with a lot of data and results to write. PD. A new pre-print is coming before the year ends.

La fecundación no es una simple carrera de velocidad; el óvulo participa activamente. El líquido folicular libera señales químicas que atraen hasta un 40% más al esperma de ciertos hombres según su compatibilidad genética (HLA). Este diálogo bioquímico redefine las causas de infertilidad.

Moguel et al. publish a new Review on how metagenomics has revolutionized our understanding of microbial evolution, revealing lineages and functional adaptations, and reshaping our view of the Tree of Life. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evag029 🖌️ Laura Carrillo Olivas #genome #evolution #microbesky

Una semana en casa y uno empieza a pensar si vale la pena esto de la ciencia, ojala la vida fuera siempre así de ligera y calurosa. #postdoc #gym

Walt et al. leverage newly available cartilaginous fish genomes to investigate globin gene family evolution, revealing both similar and contrasting patterns of globin gene evolution between cartilaginous and bony vertebrates. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/... 🖌️ Amber E. McDonald #genome #evolution

The most recent publication from my former PhD advisor Eugenio Mancera together with great scientists such as @lumoralesr.bsky.social, Alexander De Luna and Abraham Avelar. It was a great adventure to see all this science happening in real time. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

APSPM brought together researchers from around the world to explore protein evolution from different angles. Structural approaches are reshaping evolutionary inference and the community is growing. Huge thanks to participants and @official-smbe.bsky.social for making this meeting a success. #StryPhy

Great first day for the #StrPhy26 with new perspectives about the reconstruction of evolutionary trajectory. And of course amazed by the #diversity of Australia.

Great study, Evolutionary signatures of the erosion of sexual reproduction genes in domesticated cassava (Manihot esculenta) url: academic.oup.com/g3journal/ar...

Last year I moved to metagenomics and field work, today as a result i'm excited to share this preprint in which we highligth the traditional coffee agrosystems effects on soil health and bacterial diversity. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-8...

Echinoderms already undergo large-scale metamorphosis during larval development, so there are lots of gene 'switches' that produce different patterning. The loss of a few of these (say, for "trunk") creates an animal that is a sort of "Oops, All-Arms!" body plan.

Hawaiian bobtail squid maintain distinct microbiota in different organs, including bioluminescent bacteria in their light organs, by deploying immune factors with tailored expressions in each niche. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/QxLo50XPnyS

I hope this year will come with new colaborations and the first publication from my current postdoc work... And I hope all my friends have so much success

Migration is widespread in animals, but little is known about its genetic regulation. Peralta et al. compared genomes of lesser long-nosed bats, identifying 10 genomic regions with signatures of selection linked to migration. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evaf203 #genome #evolution #migration

Awesome experience

This endless hunger for publish or perish is just killing My love for science, today i just wanna enjoy My postdoc and do cool research with my límited skills but with curiosity and kindnes.

Tomorrow leg day, today arms and photos

Sometimes I need to remember that life Is not a race even science is just about do what you really love and learn a lot

I'm just reading and trying to find My place in the scientific world
