Jaime Huerta-Cepas @jhcepas, group leader at @CBGP_Madrid, joint center @La_UPM and @INIA_es, has received the researcher award 2024 of @INIA_es. Congrats Jaime!!

[FEBS @FEBSnews]

FEBS Fellowships congratulations: we wish Claudia Sanchis López (@clausanchis) from @cgmlaboratory at the Centre for Plant Biotechnology and Genomics, Madrid (@CBGP_Madrid) a rewarding research trip to @EMBLHeidelberg! #FEBSFellowships https://t.co/hWQ6eS0y0n

"Comparison of gene clustering criteria reveals intrinsic uncertainty in pangenome analyses", in collaboration w/ the Iranzo Lab at @CBGP_Madrid.

Nice work derived from Saioa Manzano's master thesis + Yang Liu and Sara González Bodí contribs.@MicroBioBits

We are happy to present "TreeProfiler:A command-line tool for computing and visualizing phylogenetic profiles against large trees"(https://t.co/YBtng3UFuo) for annotate and visualize phylogenetic tree with associated metadata... 1/9

[Jaime Huerta-Cepas @jhcepas]

Another step in our goal to build a phylogenomics framework that works well with large datasets: TreeProfiler, a handy tool by @deng_ziqi that can map/profile any kind of data against huge trees.

Tree + TSV file = auto viz with @etetoolkit v4.0

Very exited to discuss the novel gene family analysis we did at @cgmlaboratory in the next edition of the #MVIF !

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

our colab paper with the Baker lab is now out!

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

eggnog 6.0 is out! Lots of great work from the CGMlab crew @anahernandezpl1 Jorge Botas, Carlos P. Cantalapiedra, and @Ginerorama; in close colaboration with the Bork's, von Mering's, and Jensen's labs.

📢 Would you like to work on environmental metagenomics and microbial biodiversity?

Our lab has two PhD offers associated to the Spanish FPI program:

1. https://t.co/AoLQc7XnRf

2. https://t.co/pxfIq9MeKf

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

Interested in exploring synteny conservation of prok. eggNOG/KEGG/PFAM groups or genes?

Try GeCoViz: genomic context visualisation of prokaryotic genes from a functional and evolutionary perspective

super work by @jbotas2 @alvarordr @Ginerorama

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

available 2 postdoc positions for 2 projects starting soon in our lab:

1) BIOUNLOCK: unlocking rare microbial biodiversity in plant soil and phyllosphere. https://t.co/FXXAkAU3q9

2) NUTRIHEAT: root microbiome dynamics on temperature nutrients shock. https://t.co/Nn7iGZxKdX

We are happy to announce our latest work PhyloCloud(https://t.co/rCiiWzBGQU), an online platform for making sense of phylogenomic data, is now published on @NAR_Open https://t.co/It3itnkmYh
Main features will be unfolded in this thread:
@cgmlaboratory @jhcepas @CBGP_Madrid

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

Our preprint about the discovery and curation of novel microbial protein families from uncultivated prokaryotes is now out.

huge work by @alvarordr and many other

[Alvaro Rodríguez del Río @alvarordr]

Today we release our work on characterizing novel genes from uncultivated prokaryotes!

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

glad to share our latest lab paper on the ecological distribution & evolutionary value of 300M genes from 13,000 samples and 14 habitats.

w/ @alvarordr @cpcantalapiedra @Ginerorama @BorkLab @luispedrocoelho & more @CBGP_Madrid @INIA_es @CSIC @La_UPM

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

new collaboration paper from the lab, involving @anahernandezpl1 @cpcantalapiedra.

Awesome work led by the Arendt lab at EMBL.

[Jaime Huerta-Cepas @jhcepas]

This single-cell analysis of marine sponges led by Detlev Arendt & Jake Musser at @embl provides hints on the possible origin of modern synaptic genes, w/ our modest contrib predicting the evolutionary path of sponge genes.

Next Friday Oct 14 at 12:30 CET I will have the pleasure to host an online CBGP seminar by Manuel Delgado Baquerizo @ManuDelBaq about

"The fundamental importance of conserving soil biodiversity".

Do not miss it! Link open to everyone (Zoom ID: 867 7585 8243 | 143563)

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

and, another new ms!: @cpcantalapiedra got the new version of eggnog-mapper published: functional annotation, domain mapping and orthology asignments for large genomic and metagenomic datasets. An ongoing collaboration with the @BorkLab @CBGP_madrid https://t.co/01HDH5tppk

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

new ms: @clausanchis just got her results published describing ecological vs phylogenetic signal in the distribution of chemoreceptors, reporting a bunch of putative new ligand bind domain families. Great colab work w/ the Lopez-Solanilla lab @CBGP_madrid https://t.co/Ph4oMVHqHh

[Comparative Genomics and Metagenomics Lab @cgmlaboratory]

The team has spoken and they voted for a lab twitter account, so here go! publication updates, job offers, microbial genomics, phylogenomics, etc. We are: @deng_ziqi @cpcantalapiedra @Calyptrochaeta @anahernandezpl1 @Ginerorama @alvarordr @jbotas2 @clausanchis @jhcepas
