New preprint from the lab: we show that the ability to switch mating type was lost at least 13 times independently in the evolution of S. cerevisiae. At least 27% of isolates are heterothallic with a strong association with polyploidy and heterozygosity

Superhappy to share the last paper from my PhD in @litinice.bsky.social lab. We evolved yeasts with humanized telomeric repeats and discovered that they adapt through amplification of telomere-binding proteins and inactivation of the DNA damage response.

Goodbye to #EESDrugResistance @embo.org - what a fantastic conference it was! Really cool to see the overlaps between fungal, cancer, and bacterial biology. Thought I'd use the chance to say thank you to the organizers 🙏 and migrate from the evil place to #academic Bluesky at the same time.
