New paper is out! We have studied the cute tiny Discocelia plataet sp. n. to obtain the first molecular data of the order Discocelida and clarify its cell structure. All this for a better understanding of the evolution of Cercozoa.

The first paper from my PhD is out now! doi.org/10.1111/jeu....

We describe a new photosynthetic #Paulinella species from a brackish beach in British Columbia 🇨🇦

Big thanks to the co-authors Maia Palka and @alive-in-the-ocean.bsky.social, and my supervisor @fburki.bsky.social

Promethea = PROvora + MEteora + HEmimastigophora. The new supergroup, unifying previously “orphan” lineages with gene-rich mitogenomes. Position of #telonemids is still uncertain. #protistsonsky tinyurl.com/yk9xkt49

Honored to have presented our work on spatial proteomics and selected for one of the best student presentation awards in this year’s ICOP/ISOP 2025 conference in Seoul! Amazing talks from protistologist from all branches of life 😉 Hope to see you guys next year in Prague! #protistonsky

Anyone by any chance have the OligoArrayAux program as a windows ZIP file laying around and willing to share? Needed to run on DECIPHER. All UNAFold websites are defunct and no mirrors exist 😕 #ProtistsOnSky
