Our very own ⁦Antonia Otte⁩ on mitotic recombination in #diatoms at #MLD7 ⁦Molecular Life of Diatoms⁩

So good to be back in the diatom community to share where our lab plans to go Molecular Life of Diatoms #MLD7, showcasing EMBLtrec and… starting to systematically add a slide about bias in science. Great session on diatom interactions 🤩

Wade Roberts on the size evolution in Thalassiosirales at #MLD7 ⁦Molecular Life of Diatoms⁩ #evolution #genomics

Thomas Mock Molecular Life of Diatoms Wonderful talk with 3D diatom props!

A beautiful talk by Mai at #MLD7 Molecular Life of Diatoms! Lots of questions and interest from the crowd. Good Job, mai sadeh! 🌊🌊

Our very own Longji Deng on the role of #rhodopsin in the polar diatom #Fragilariopsis cylindrus at #MLD7 ⁦Molecular Life of Diatoms⁩

⁦Dr. Sarah Smith⁩ on the #diatom cistrome at #MLD7 ⁦Molecular Life of Diatoms⁩ Fantastic genome-wide analysis on identifying TF binding sites in #Phaeodactylum

So wonderful to see everyone last night Maritime Museum of San Diego museum featuring music from Sue Palmer! #MLD7

Fin! Thanks to everyone for attending! We can't wait for #MLD8 in Ghent!!

Our new paper on the role of plastid-localized xanthorhodopsin in sustaining #diatom biomass and ecosystem productivity in iron-limited surface oceans.
