Introducing ** Incendiamoeba **, a eukaryote that can live at temperatures well beyond what we thought possible. 63C!!
Read @hbrappap.bsky.social thread to see what we’ve already started to learn from this amazing organism!

So happy to announce our new preprint, “A geothermal amoeba sets a new upper temperature limit for eukaryotes.” We cultured a novel amoeba from Lassen Volcanic NP (CA, USA) that divides at 63°C (145°F) 🔥 - a new record for euk growth!

Congrats @zepernickbn.bsky.social @tn-marine-micro.bsky.social ! 🦠
Research globally and act locally. Nice to see @zepernickbn.bsky.social @utkmicrobiology.bsky.social getting attention for collaborations with GLCFWHH researchers to address a local algal bloom. Just published in Harmful Algae.

Having a great time visiting Ghent, Belgium and attending #MLD8 to present my postdoc work on deciphering algal-bacterial interactions under iron limitation using #exometabolomics and #nanoSIP
