Our work on viruses and virus satellites of haloarchaea and their DPANN symbionts is out today in Nature Microbiology! @NatureMicrobiol

Out Now! Viruses and virus satellites of haloarchaea and their nanosized DPANN symbionts reveal intricate nested interactions https://t.co/fupa5Dbnbr #Viruses#Microbiology#Haloarchaea
In collaboration with Deem Team @DEEMteam_Orsay, we uncovered the complex interactions between haloarchaea, nanohaloarchaea, and their respective viruses and virus satellites in salt lakes. See 🧵

I'm very happy to report that @mschecht_bio's PhD work is now online as a pre-print:
"Ribosomal protein phylogeography offers quantitative insights into the efficacy of genome-resolved surveys of microbial communities"

Aaand here's a little 🧵 about it.
Puri gave this short interview (in Spanish) to Radio France Internationale just after her nomination to the French National Academy of Sciences:

Among the big news from the team before the end of the year, Puri has been elected as a new member of the French Academy of Sciences (Académie des Sciences)!

It includes our (@DEEMteam_Orsay ) work on hypersaline ecosystems in the Danakil depression, with microbial communities harbouring up to 99% of archaea. Go check these unique sites: https://t.co/zFhz0yXN0m
Our August issue includes extreme wildfires, Holocene floristic diversity, moa extinctions, microbial community divergence, and a brittle star genome

New paper out! We continue our work on the hyperhalophilic microbial communities of the Danakil Depression (Ethiopia) using metagenomics. We have studied hypersaline lakes with strong geothermal influence, such as the Western Canyon Lakes (WCL).

After years of protist isolation within the @DEEMteam_Orsay we are proud to share this preprint. Here we present a version of the eukaryotic tree of life enriched for our favorite protists, water beans (Ancyromonadida) and tiny elephants (Apusomonadida): https://t.co/uVS5tB6Ial
We are very proud to announce that Puri has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant #ERCAdG to work on symbiotic interactions and eukaryogenesis!
Our team's fourth ERC grant.
We have an open postdoc position to work on the molecular phylogeny and early genome evolution of archaea. Contact us if you have experience in molecular phylogeny and/or comparative genomics.
