Excited to share the lab's 1rst preprint! Rapid high-res immunofluorescence is now possible in cultured & environmental diatoms thanks to 4-fold expansion microscopy. A step-change for comparative cell biology in one of the most important phytoplankton groups on the planet 🥳

Fireworms are a reservoir and potential vector for coral-infecting apicomplexans
Abstract. Corals (Cnidaria; Anthozoa) play critical roles as habitat-forming species with a wide range, from warm shallow-water tropical coral reefs to col

DiatOmicBase: a versatile gene‐centered platform for mining functional omics data in diatom research
In recent years, diatoms have become the subject of increasing interest because of their ecological importance and their biotechnological potential for natural products such as pigments and polyunsat...
