Scientists have seen Asgard archaea crawling for the first time. When it comes to the origin of eukaryotes, this is like seeing a feathered dinosaur in the wild. (Video courtesy of Philipp Ralder)
Very excited to share my first preprint! Great teamwork and an amazing collaborative effort.
Looking forward to the next one 😉

I am super happy and honored to see some of my movies making it into the NYT. I hope everybody enjoys watching them go as much as I do!
Hell yeah look at that little guy go
Slow and steady!
After 15 years of continuous cultivation, we finally isolated the first psychrotolerant ammonia-oxidizing archaeon (AOA) from an arctic environment, Ca. Nitrosocosmicus articus!

Article in TIME, featuring ISTA postdoc @eliamascolo.bsky.social. After 4 years in the US, he moved to Austria with the APART-USA fellowship, a program that supports outstanding researchers in relocating their work to Austria.

What electron microscope images hint at, but can only be seen in videos: how 'Asgard' archaea move.

We are excited to share a new preprint from Dimitris Dalkidis that identifies the effects of inhibitors DMPP and ATU in ammonia-oxidizing archaea! #archaea

Do biofilms give an ecological advantage? Yes!
A fantastic follow-up to our previous biofilm work in ammonia-oxidizing archaea:
