@mingpapilio.bsky.social shaking up evolutionary theory at #eseb2025 Models linking species diversity with ecological stability may not be as straightforward as we thought! Amazing talk

Very exciting! Had a great time messing with microscopes and sea anemones with @micro-megs.bsky.social this week

Spent the week in Cambridge with @benkinsjenkins.bsky.social testing this custom made microscope to live image Aiptasia larvae. Got some cool videos that we hope to share very soon! Thanks for hosting me Ben!

I am obviously biased, but this should be a great conference (as long as you don't mind hearing me go on about Paramecium and corals) ! 🦠🪸

I had a wild time presenting my coral work for the first time at EMBO/EMBL #EESWildModels. Massive thanks to @embl.org @events.embl.org and the organisers for putting this together. It was a real pleasure to interact with so many weird and wonderful creatures... ...and their model organisms (!!)

Check out our dispatch on apicomplexans that infect corals! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... These parasite-like partners have lost photosynthesis but retained chlorophyll... are they friend or foe? @currentbiology.bsky.social #protistsonsky #symbiosky #microsky #coralreefs

Neat paper describing the role of integrin receptors in coral symbiosis by @mela-doerr.bsky.social , @micro-megs.bsky.social and the Guse lab. Disrupting integrin binding stalls symbiosis establishment, and expressing these receptors in human cells allowed them to take up symbionts too! Very cool

🚨New Preprint Alert!🚨 Integrins are key receptors involved in the phagocytosis of symbionts in cnidarians. This sheds light on the mechanisms of symbiosis establishment in coral reefs. A thread... #coralreef #aiptasia #marinesymbiosis www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
