Registration for the VLIZ Marine Science Day 2025 #VMSD25 is open. Expect a dynamic blend of presentations & networking moments. To celebrate our 25th anniversary, interactive demo booths will showcase major milestones, groundbreaking projects & valued collaborations. Be there! www.vliz.be/vmsd/en
Excited to share the Phaeoexplorer paper out today in Cell: Evolutionary genomics of the emergence of brown algae as key components of coastal ecosystems! π Including the genome of Dictyota dichotoma and many more! doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... #Seaweed
Happy to share our new preprint on this new platform:
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
We designed new selection systems for the green seaweed Ulva and benchmarked different CRISPR/Cas applications to install targeted mutations.
When students do a great job! How beautiful are these #kelp babies? π #Laminaria ochroleuca #PhycologyFriday

Can you add me, please? Thanks!
π¨ New preprint out on diatom adaptation!
Using population genomics and transcriptomics, we investigated how the ancestrally marine diatom Skeletonema marinoi colonized, and adapted to, the brackish Baltic Sea π§¬ππ§ͺ - and found hundreds of genes under selection. Link below. π
