Interested in Asgard archaea? @tonigabaldon.bsky.social and I wrote a small blog post on our most recent paper about these fascinating group of prokaryotes and their genome dynamics: go.nature.com/4uPLY5W
Asgard archaea have emerged as key organisms to understand eukaryogenesis. Among their many fascinating features is their atypically large genomes. Here, we dive deep into Asgard genome evolution to u...
#Paper Our new study on #Asgard archaea is out in Nature Communications. We find a distinctive evolutionary pattern: widespread #HGT, but genome expansion mainly through gene duplication. An interesting window into the origins of #eukaryotic complexity.

📣 Following the Summer School, we will have this year's Symposium on "Frontiers in Molecular Zoology". Present your work on emerging model systems!
Register until June 30 with a contributed talk: events.gwdg.de/event/1458/
(Registration without a talk is open until August 14).
Amazing couple of days enjoying & discussing science in the best possible company during the Barcelona meeting of the 'EvoDevOmics Network', funded by @ageinves.bsky.social. Really happy to see how the EvoDevo community in Spain is thriving & fostering a fantastic new generation of PhDs & Postdocs.
The genomes of Asgard archaea, the closest prokaryotic relatives to eukaryotes, are larger than those of other archaea and contain multiple genes seemingly acquired from bacteria. Here, Manzano-Morale...
The last couple of days were a blast! We had the 1st general meeting of the Spanish Network of #EvoDevOmics, funded by @ageinves.bsky.social.
Lots of great science and fruitful discussions! Thanks to @mirimiam.bsky.social, @imaeso.bsky.social and @isabelalmudi.bsky.social for the local organization
NEWS: The ERC Scientific Council has listened to the concerns from members of the research community about changes to the re-submission rules, intended to manage the surge in demand for grants.
