1/4 #science tweet: new #preprint from our lab. We show that double-stranded RNA, a viral pattern, promotes apoptosis in #Nematostella. This phenomenon is conserved from cnidarians to humans. This work was led by Twitterless Itamar Kozlovski and @ajjb80 🧵

1/6 I'm thrilled to share our paper about cnidarian antiviral immunity that was just accepted to @MolBioEvol. This work was led by super postdoc @magda_lll as well as @SharoniTon, @AdmoniYael and @Rubi335

1/4 There's always something bittersweet about talented people leaving a group for good reasons. This week we say goodbye to @Arie_Fridrich and @magda_lll, two main pillars in of our team. I am indebted to these two guys, and was lucky to work with them in the last few years.

[Magda Lewandowska @magda_lll]

@YehuMoran @Arie_Fridrich Thank you, Yehu. It’s been really great to work with you. Modesty aside, we did some great research together! 👏👏Thank you everyone for so many warm words 😊

Second day of our Evolutionary Immunology workshop. Amazing talks by @Cnidarians_Rock @reefgenomics @AleTorr_i @DarrenObbard @SaraMaciasRNA and many others. One last super talk about #Cnidaria #RNAi by @magda_lll who is leaving Israel in a couple of days. Photo by @Arie_Fridrich

Check out our new preprint! We characterised neuropeptides of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis in the nerve net and aboral organ! The neuropeptides are so awesome that they revealed the main cteno secret - molecular identity of neurons!
It was a huge team effort💪

[Yehu Moran @YehuMoran]

We are looking for a #postdoc for a cool new project.

@Inforenfe Hay alguna posibilidad de que el tren Avila-Madrid reanude su actividad a la 13:15 hoy?

Ever considered a link between #Venom and #evodevo? These are two of my favorite fields in biology. I'm excited to share our new review paper in @EvoDevo_BMC linking these fields. Amazing conceptual work by @joachimsurm

🚨 As good a day to announce my research website!

It has been fun making it and I'd like to hear feedback if you have any

Thanks to @ashwinmoily for securing the domain :)

Thanks @YehuMoran @Venky_MVN @magda_lll @and @Rubi335, was a pleasure. Thanks everyone for the warm responses. Moving on to finalize the LAST project of my PhD. Stay tuned for some ⚡️stinging ⚡️ results!

1/4 I'm thrilled to announce that our work on the #evolution of #Argonaute proteins and miRNAs in #Nematostella was published today. A journey we started >6 years ago. Led by @Arie_Fridrich and @Venky_MVN assisted by @magda_lll and @Rubi335.

People who got faculty jobs, did you apply for all the available positions, even only partially relevant? Or you waited for an exact fit? Some career advice would be really helpful 😊

[Magda Lewandowska @magda_lll]

@SachkovaMaria Thanks Maria!

[Magda Lewandowska @magda_lll]

check out our new preprint!

[Yehu Moran @YehuMoran]

1/4 🔥#preprint alert!🔥
In this very cool work led by @magda_lll assisted by Ton Sharoni, @Rubi335 and @AdmoniYael we explore for the first time by functional means the #antiviral innate #immunity system of #Nematostella

@Venky_MVN @Dev_journal @touhamsters @CyanoEvo Congrats! very cool!

[Maria Sachkova @SachkovaMaria]

Check out our new paper about new toxin-like neuropeptides and venom evolution in Nematostella! Several surprising findings ;) Thanks to the cool co-authors @YehuMoran @joachimsurm @Jason_Macrander @adam_reitzel Morani and Shir!
