Our study on fungal zoospores swimming pattern is out in Current Biology! This study came from one simple question: Do all chytrid zoospores have the same swimming behavior? (No, they don’t!) doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.… 👇

Huge forest fires are burning across Portugal 🇵🇹🔥 Two of the largest fires in the Aveiro District have burned over an estimated 15,000 hectares so far.

Excited and proud to share our preprint! A network of glycan sensing controls endosymbiosis in the protist, Paramecium bursaria 🦠 This includes an ancient eukaryote immune-like factor, and prokaryote proteins acquired via horizontal gene-transfer! 1/10 doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

Today, I reflect on the legacy of @IGCiencia over the last 60 years and what it has meant for research and the scientific community in Portugal and beyond. IGC was never just a place—it was a pioneering model. #IGCLegacyLivesOn 1/5

YAP, a protein known to help #cancer cells survive treatment, behaves very differently in cell culture models depending on how they are grown in the lab, highlighting the importance of mimicking tumour architecture to guide better drug strategies. elifesciences.org/reviewed-prepr…
