Excited to share our third heterotrophic #Paulinella culture from Haida Gwaii, Canada! :)

Our 2nd heterotrophic #Paulinella culture!
Really proud of this one. After days at the microscope picking cells, I finally got it growing happily :)

The first paper from my PhD is out now! doi.org/10.1111/jeu....
We describe a new photosynthetic #Paulinella species from a brackish beach in British Columbia 🇨🇦
Big thanks to the co-authors Maia Palka and @alive-in-the-ocean.bsky.social, and my supervisor @fburki.bsky.social

We isolated some cryptophytes (likely Teleaulax, based on morphology) from the west coast of Sweden and tried #ExM on them.

Thought I'd reshare our Paulinella staining here! We did this together with @beaplab.bsky.social - huge thanks to BEAP lab for teaching me this amazing staining!
Can’t wait to apply it to novel Paulinella species ;)
