Uppsala, Sverige
Joined November 2014
Paulinella: Beyond the Surface! Big thanks to @balkalarre and BEAP lab for introducing me to this cool staining method. Shoutout to @skamnelou_rita for her staining mastery Can't wait to use this on heterotrophic #Paulinella! @fburki

Are you or do you know someone interested in symbiosis research? Anaeramoeba is an exciting organism to explore symbiosis in a low-oxygen environment. Less than a week (December 6) to apply for the PhD position in my group! https://t.co/TaoTV5xXdn Please share widely!

It was a pleasure to work with @e_hehenberger on this book chapter. EGT, LGT, we discuss numbers and issues with predicting gene transfers. Also what happens to EGT when a plastid is lost. The whole book is full of exciting chapters
@fburki and I took a deep, deep dive into endosymbiotic gene transfer in plastids, resulting in this book chapter that just got published: https://t.co/WogS3tPajN

We've just published a comparative genomic analysis of Ascetosporean parasites (Rhizaria). We produced genomic data for two additional classes (Haplosporidia and Paramyxida), and the undescribed Cercozoa M6MM, and combined that to the available mikrocitids https://t.co/1e68tLBKsq

Tried baking muffins to take a break from lab work: Ended up adding 2 tablespoons of baking powder instead of teaspoons, its my PCR all over again!
