A really great overview of the current status of the tree of life!

🧬🔬 Nice dive into how #metagenomics & single-cell genomics are revolutionizing our understanding of the tree of life by Laura Eme & Daniel Tamarit 🧬 #MicrobialDiversity #genomics #singlecell #biodiversity #protists

If your interested in applying AleRax to open problems across biological scales, or perhaps in working on future versions, take a look at the range of positions that we have open at our group: oist.jp/research/resea…

For anybody interested in CRISPR-Cas it is highly recommended to have a look at this amazing new article!

But definitely read this thread by Carl Raymund Salazar if you want to dip your toes before diving in the deep.

🎉 Proud to announce our work is out now! Here, we report a cascade of caspase-associated proteolytic activities activated by type III-B CRISPR-Cas signaling upon target RNA detection, leading to a strong defense response. Short 🧵: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Dear (Environmental) Microbiologists! Does anyone have recommendations for a Flow Cytometer? Particularly, with the ability to separate small particles and microbes. Curious to hear what works well in your hands!

Tip for using IQ-TREE with profile mixture models. If you use C60 or LG+C60, you should ALWAYS put -mwopt in the command line, otherwise the program will not optimize class weights for your data set (it will use default weights of the C60 model).
