🦠 How did our cells originate?
A study by #IRBBarcelona & @bsc-cns.bsky.social by @gabaldonlab.bsky.social, suggests cellular complexity arose through long-term microbial alliances rather than a single evolutionary event.

Science really takes a village. Thrilled to share this with my friend @dudinlab.bsky.social, and with our brilliant and fearless teams, our collaborators around the world and our mentors - in my case a special shoutout to Buzz Baum, Jan Ellenberg and @monicabettencourt.bsky.social.

Two great scientists and humans, whose collaboration shows what it’s like to do science as a positive-sum game. Wonderful news for evolutionary cell biology and for you two @dudinlab.bsky.social @gautamdey.bsky.social! 👏
Congrats @canaztekin.bsky.social !!!
Japan reforested with Japanese cedar (sugi) and cypress (hinoki) in the 1950s to rebuild post-war forests. Now the pollen gives 40%+ of its population hay fever. Climate change extends pollen seasons further. Today’s decisions shape tomorrow’s reality. Short-term fixes can become long-term crises.
Congratulations to both @gautamdey.bsky.social & @dudinlab.bsky.social on receiving the EMBO Gold Medal 2026. A wonderful recognition for their work at the interface of cell an evolutionary biology. Wishing them continued success.
Congratulations to @gautamdey.bsky.social and @dudinlab.bsky.social - so well deserved
