Ernesto Llamas@eellamas.bsky.social · 3mo ago1/ Happy to share our latest work, now on bioRxiv! 🌱🍄 We explore how Serendipita indica effectors target root plastids and modulate plastidial metabolism through prion-like domains. bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... #plastids #plantmicrobe #chloroplasts #plants
I will be talking at @pintofscience.de 🤩 expect some memes 🤣 and cool illustrations

Lately, social media is full of AI-generated images. So I wanted to share something different. This is a watercolor I painted of a lab instrument I used thousands of times during my PhD and postdoc. It’s a simple device for separating proteins. I always liked its translucent green look.
For the second year in a row, Parafilm has been recognized with the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2025! 🏅
Instead of money and stability, I chose a few cents and Parafilm. Best decision of my life 💙 Love you Parafilm, thanks for literally holding my life together
With AI everywhere, real human-made art is getting rare. So here’s a little watercolor I painted of my favorite lab essential #Parafilm
Doing science today feels like playing a video game on legendary difficulty. With shrinking budgets, extreme publication fees, subjective rejections, and daily lab chaos, the path of a scientist is tougher than ever. At least we have Parafilm to hold it all together. Stay strong, scientists.
Parafilm M has a rival. Have you heard about Waxfilm F?
Just found an old-school Parafilm box. Vintage lab supplies, anyone? Anyone else come across one of these relics lately?
Your lab scissors are actually a parafilmase - a highly specialized enzyme that catalyzes the precise cutting of parafilm through a metal-dependent mechanism
Vortexes are simple devices commonly used in labs to mix small vials of liquid. But have you ever tried vortexing your finger? This watercolor is a tribute to the vortex - a simple but indispensable lab device
