Gene annotations matter for downstream analyses: different structural gene-annotation pipelines yield markedly different orthology calls. We compare four strategies across species and argue for standards & QC before inference. Work led by @silviaprietob.bsky.social. Paper: doi.org/10.1093/bioi...

Our lab has published a couple of major papers in the past few months, which I would like to highlight in this thread! 🧵

Here are all the talks I attended and sketched at #ESEB2025 ! Only a fraction of the 642 speakers at the conference 😮
I had an absolutely amazing week chatting about lots of fascinating science

You can find my poster "Microsynteny and functional relatedness in eukaryotes" at the slot 209 today and visit at around 5 if you want to know more or talk anything synteny, gene order, functional association or genome evolution related :) #ESEB2025

It's been an exciting first day of #ESEB2025, with a great opening talk by Michael Lynch. Moreover, a very timely recap on lessons learnt in pines climate change adaptations by Santiago González, during a week marked by unprecedented wildfires in Spain. [Among many, many other interesting talks]

Incendios submarinos: las olas de calor son un infierno para los corales mediterráneos
Cantaba Mecano en los años 90 que «Hawaii y Bombay son dos paraísos». Lo que no podía imaginar Ana Torroja en aquel entonces es que, en el contexto actual de crisis climática, hasta el paraíso pued…

Another consequence of the disastrous attack on NIH by Trump, Musk, and their followers
The 3-decade-old competition that enabled the emergence and evaluate of AlphaFold has run out of NIH funding.
The program will be terminated in weeks.
This is terminating success.

Tracing the evolution of key traits in dorid nudibranchs
Reconstructing trait evolution is critically important for elucidating the processes generating biodiversity. However, this work is in its infancy in non-model clades for which we lack a basic underst...

Unicore is now published on GBE 🚀
Unicore rapidly identifies structural single-copy core genes from input species proteomes for phylogenetic analysis. Powered by Foldseek and ProstT5, Unicore enables linear-scale structure-based phylogeny of any given set of taxa. 🧵1/n
