Thank you #EED2026 for the exciting update on evo-devo! ✨ Super grateful to @eudaldpascual.bsky.social for cohosting and the brilliant speakers of our metabolism session! 🔥 @krittikas20.bsky.social @prhsteinmetz.bsky.social @jorgelazaro.bsky.social and Cristina Gonzalez-Estevez.

So excited to see @malinkjosavik.bsky.social beautiful work out @bmc.springernature.com 🤩! Check it out to see where the RNA-label ✨EU✨ shows up in our favourite sea anemone and how to catch your organism crafting DNA from RNA labelling tools 🧬👀. #transcription

🚨🧪Help us share: Registration deadline to the MBL #Symbiosis course got extended! Join us to get practical experience on a diversity of symbiotic organisms at the legendary MBL in Woods Hole.

Molecular and Cell Biology of Symbiosis | Marine Biological Laboratory

This is an immersive research-based course designed to teach basic concepts, open research questions, and facilitate state-of-the-art experimental approaches in symbiosis research.

March 12 is your last chance to apply for the MBL's 2025 Molecular and Cell Biology of Symbiosis course! 🗓️ This immersive, research-based course facilitates state-of-the-art experimental approaches in symbiosis research. Read more: bit.ly/4ig81fJ #ScienceStartsHere

Fantastic news! 👏Congrats James!

James Gahan@jgahan.bsky.social · last yr.

Happy to formally announce I will be working on Nematostella again on the back of a recent @researchireland.bsky.social award! Also mazing to see 4/5 Frontiers for the Future awards to @uniofgalway.bsky.social announced today coming to PIs in the CCB (chromosome.ie)!

Preprint alert! 🧪📣 The latest work of the Steinmetz group @prhsteinmetz.bsky.social on the nutritional control of quiescence in Nematostella is out! Congratulations to lead author @eudaldpascual.bsky.social & @ktgarschall.bsky.social 👏 Read the story ⤵️

Nutritional regulation of cellular quiescence depth and cell cycle re-entry in Vasa2+/Piwi1+ cells in a sea anemone

Animals with lifelong growth adjust their growth rates to nutrient availability, yet the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we studied how food supply and TOR...

Thrilled to see #choanoflagellates on the cover of Science Advances🤩. Our latest work "Electrical signaling and coordinated behavior in the closest relative of animals" out now. Link: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 👏 @jeffcolgren.bsky.social @msarscentre.bsky.social

1/3 I am very excited to tell you about our latest work where we looked not only into sea anemones but also 🪸 We find in #Nematostella that stress induces not immunity, but also viral replication, actually much faster than the immune response! 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Heat stress drives rapid viral and antiviral innate immunity activation in Hexacorallia

The cnidarian class Hexacorallia, encompassing stony corals and sea anemones, plays a critical role in marine ecosystems. Coral bleaching, the disruption of the symbiosis between stony corals and zoox...

Happy to share that the Gahan lab will be branching out (or more like returning) to working on Nematostella in the near future. Details will follow but for now if anyone is interested in doing a Postdoc or PhD in 2025 on chromatin in Nematostella drop me a message :)
