*Recruiting new group leaders*
The @lmcb-ucl.bsky.social at University College London are looking for outstanding candidates to sponsor for career development fellowships. Fellows would then be assessed for tenured positions at the end of the fellowship term.
Final version @nature.com of our paper describing unconventional multicellular development in a choanoflagellate inhabiting an extreme environment. A ton of new data since the first @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social preprint (which we've kept updating).
A brief π§΅ (carried over from the old place)
MicroSEA (Microbial Sea Eukaryotes) course is a one-week, field-based summer school to train early-career researchers in the diversity, ecology, and single-cell biology of marine protists. MicroSEA course integrates lectures, field sampling, and lab-based practicals in advanced techniques, such as flow cytometry, microscopy, culturing, and molecular analysis. The main objectives of MicroSEA course are: Fostering a deep understanding of marine protist diversity, ecology and biology; Providing hands-on training in advanced single-cell methods that are not commonly available in university programs; Building participants' confidence in designing and conducting research projects from field to data analysis; Promoting international collaborations and peer networking among students and speakers/trainers. The course will take place at the Station Biologique de Roscoff - SBR (France) - 7th to 12th of June, 2026 (arrival on the 6th, departure on the 13th). 20 participants will be selected, including 10 from EuroMarine member institutes. https://opbc.sciencesconf.org/
Protist lovers: Please apply for a week of rhapsody! Learn by doing:

How does the piRNA pathway solve the self vs. non-self problem? π§¬
Since piRNAs come from single-stranded RNA, how does the cell choose the right ones? For years, "piRNA clusters" were seen as THE privileged source. But are they really special and earmarked for biogenesis? (1/19)

Nicole Β΄s talk was amazing! thank you so much Nicole for your visit in College de France! @cirbcdf.bsky.social
Abstract submission and registration for the *10th Euro Evo Devo Meeting 2026* at University of Glasgow (June 8-12, 2026) is open. Early bird deadline: March 5, 2026. More info: https://www.evodevoconference26.com/ #conference
Change neigorhood :))))
Extremophile alert!
Registration is OPEN for the 2026 EMBO Archaeal workshop in Cambridge.
Spaces are limited, so register soon with an abstract if youβd like to give a talk.
If you canβt come in person, we are welcoming virtual attendees. So join us online where all talks will be screened!
from viruses to lipid transfer and multiple symbiosis in early eukaryotes...
#cellbiologyofeukaryogenesis @sbcf.bsky.social
fantastic start for our Eukaryogenesis meeting with a vivid overview of membrane remodelling systems in Archae!
finishing with a path to multicellularity via ultrastructure complexity #cellbiologyofeukaryogenesis @sbcf.bsky.social
a big thank you to all speakers!
Please repost and consider applying: we work in such a fantastic context, we ask so interesting questions, and we have such a collegial and best-willing atmosphere⦠CRBM = Happy & Good Science
Nicole King will give a seminar in College de France on the 10th of february at 11.30, telling us about the secret lives of choanoflagellates. Donβt hesitate to join!
