🌳😍 What's the limit between lineages to delimt two sp? We're very happy 2 share w/you our pre-print using an integrative approach to describe a new Saccharomyces sp from Chiloé 🇨🇱. Work by the brilliant PhD student Tomas Peña Open to discuss! Instituto Milenio de Biología Integrativa 🌱 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…




Recientemente describimos una nueva especie de Saccharomyces aislada desde Chiloé denominada Saccharomyces chiloensis. Este descubrimiento es hoy noticia en La Tercera, y también en Estrella de Chiloé. Felices que sea compartido en su lugar de origen, Chiloé 😍 Tomas Peña



Busy morning at #Icy2024 where we showed our work Instituto Milenio de Biología Integrativa 🌱 on S. chiloensis (Tomas Peña’s work) and in paralell Luis Saona on changes in fungal communities across Patagonia Núcleo LiLi 😅😅 🌳🌳 Took some time to mention el Trauco and Caleuche!




Very excited to share the preprint of our latest work “Predicting the natural yeast phenotypic landscape with machine learning”, now available at: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… This research was part of my PhD at niceyeastlab. Here are few highlights from our study:

🚨Exciting Update!🚨 We’re thrilled to announce @G__Fischer as our confirmed keynote speaker! Join us for the Society for Molecular Biology and Evolution Satellite Meeting Molecular Mechanisms of Adaptation and Experimental Evolution: Past and Future Perspectives🧬 Puerto Varas, Chile 🗓️ October 6-8, 2025


What rules successful lager fermentation in novel hybrids? We developed dozens of hybrids to solve this & evaluated parental contribution, ploidy levels, mitochondria and volatile compounds in beer. Have a look to our latest article in EIC Jack Gilbert 👇🍺 journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…

Amazing work done by my lab mates 🫰🏽. Congrats vasni zavaleta
