Irene Forn is on the PREPAP cruise conducting experiments to gain a better understanding of the feeding patterns of #protists🌊🔬
Returning from the protist meeting in Prague. A few intense days, full of results, knowledge, inspiration and nice people
The many dimensions of becoming a scientist. A very interesting rain of comments an ideas
Hot off the press! We are sharing oligoN-design, an open-source tool to find specific probes and primers from large molecular datasets, without relying on specific databases, alignments or phylogenetic trees. @mariescopy.bsky.social @rmassanam.bsky.social @beaplab.bsky.social doi.org/10.1111/1755...
OligoN‐Design: A Simple and Versatile Tool to Design Specific Probes and Primers From Large Heterogeneous Datasets
High-throughput environmental DNA sequencing has ushered ecological and evolutionary studies into the big data era. With thousands to millions of DNA sequences, designing taxon-specific oligonucleoti...

Oligonucleotide design meets big data: We present oligoN-design, a simple, reproducible and versatile open-source tool to design specific primers and probes directly from large environmental DNA datasets. 🔗 DOI: doi.org/10.1101/2025... 👉 github.com/MiguelMSandi...
As the project progresses, we need more people to lend a hand, our team has grown! Some of us will be presenting new results at the Protistology Open 2026 in Prage. See you there! #protists
Very excited to present our new project #BYGENEX, an @ERC_Research Advanced Grant! During the next five years we will be studying the genetic mechanisms that govern the phagocytosis of bacteria by protists @icmcsic.bsky.social
Happy to open a new BlueSky account to discuss the #diversity and #evolution of #protists. 🧬🔬 Stay tuned!
