Later Iss G Martos presented sequencing data and microscopic CARD-FISH observations (including grazing) of the enigmatic Picozoa
As the project progresses, we need more people to lend a hand, our team has grown! Some of us will be presenting new results at the Protistology Open 2026 in Prage. See you there! #protists
The many dimensions of becoming a scientist. A very interesting rain of comments an ideas
We had the opportunity to present the results from our lab. I presented a plenary talk with the relevance and possibilities to deal with uncultivated diversity
Irene Forn is on the PREPAP cruise conducting experiments to gain a better understanding of the feeding patterns of #protists🌊🔬
Then Aleix Obiol presented new genomic and transcriptomic data to search for putative genes related to phagocytosis
Returning from the protist meeting in Prague. A few intense days, full of results, knowledge, inspiration and nice people

High-throughput environmental DNA sequencing has ushered ecological and evolutionary studies into the big data era. With thousands to millions of DNA sequences, designing taxon-specific oligonucleoti...
Oligonucleotide design meets big data:
We present oligoN-design, a simple, reproducible and versatile open-source tool to design specific primers and probes directly from large environmental DNA datasets.
