Esto duele en el alma. Nuestros colegas en formación, los estudiantes de posgrado, exigiendo lo que les prometieron y ahora les niegan: becas para su formación. @Conahcyt_Mex y María Elena Álvarez-Buylla Roces su obligación es estimular el desarrollo del sistema, no limitarlo.

En esta lista viene mi artículo sobre la historia del aguacate en México. Échenle un ojo. Muchas gracias a quien ya lo leyó y le permitió al texto estar aquí 🥹 gatopardo.com/noticias-actua…

Just published! We have studied the diversity and interactions of prokaryotes and protists in the wonderful Salar de Huasco. A collaboration with our Chilean friends 🌻Carolina F. Cubillos🌻 Pablo Aguilar and Cristina Dorador Ortiz 🦩 journals.asm.org/doi/epub/10.11…

OUT NOW Expanded phylogeny of extremely halophilic archaea shows multiple independent adaptations to hypersaline environments DEEM team Orsay nature.com/articles/s4156…

It's out! It's out! It's out!!! DEEM team Orsay @eme_laura Alvaro Rodríguez del Río Andrew J. Roger (@andrewjroger.bsky.social) Ana Gutierrez Jaime Huerta-Cepas nature.com/articles/s4156…

Feriel Bouderka is defending her thesis today! Great work on new CPR/Patescibacteria species and the evolution of this bacterial phylum.

We have an open postdoc position to work on the molecular phylogeny and early genome evolution of archaea. Contact us if you have experience in molecular phylogeny and/or comparative genomics.

We are very proud to announce that Puri has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant #ERCAdG to work on symbiotic interactions and eukaryogenesis! Our team's fourth ERC grant.

¡Feliz cumpleaños Elio!

After years of protist isolation within the DEEM team Orsay we are proud to share this preprint. Here we present a version of the eukaryotic tree of life enriched for our favorite protists, water beans (Ancyromonadida) and tiny elephants (Apusomonadida): biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New paper out! We continue our work on the hyperhalophilic microbial communities of the Danakil Depression (Ethiopia) using metagenomics. We have studied hypersaline lakes with strong geothermal influence, such as the Western Canyon Lakes (WCL). nature.com/articles/s4155…

It includes our (DEEM team Orsay ) work on hypersaline ecosystems in the Danakil depression, with microbial communities harbouring up to 99% of archaea. Go check these unique sites: nature.com/articles/s4155…

Brittany Baker talking about archaeal phylogeny at the #GDRarchaea meeting. DPANN are monophyletic and evolved from euryarchaeal ancestors!

More phylogeny at the #GDRarchaea meeting, now with @eme_laura explaining how to place eukaryotes by carefully analizing as many markers as possible

📢New job alert!!! We are looking for a postdoc to work on the enrichment and isolation of new archaeal species. Contact us if you are interested!

Among the big news from the team before the end of the year, Puri has been elected as a new member of the French Academy of Sciences (Académie des Sciences)! academie-sciences.fr/communique-de-…

Puri gave this short interview (in Spanish) to Radio France Internationale just after her nomination to the French National Academy of Sciences: rfi.fr/es/programas/m…

I'm very happy to report that Matthew S. Schechter's PhD work is now online as a pre-print: "Ribosomal protein phylogeography offers quantitative insights into the efficacy of genome-resolved surveys of microbial communities" biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Aaand here's a little 🧵 about it.

In collaboration with Deem Team DEEM team Orsay, we uncovered the complex interactions between haloarchaea, nanohaloarchaea, and their respective viruses and virus satellites in salt lakes. See 🧵 #DPANN #archaealViruses #Satellite biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Out Now! Phylogenomic analyses indicate the archaeal superphylum DPANN originated from free-living euryarchaeal-like ancestors bit.ly/4e9ZESj #Phylogenomics #Archaea #Euryarchaeota
