The 4th edition of the Michael Sars Symposium was a success 🤩 A big thank you to our fantastic speakers, engaged audience and organizing team ✨ Have a look below for a throwback to the #MSS2025 highlights! 📸⤵️
Our last session focused on Receptor Evolution 🙌 Yuhong Wang presented her latest findings on glutamate receptors, while Ryan Hibbs @ucsandiego.bsky.social shared insights on inhibitory signals in the human brain. A wonderful conclusion to #MSS2025!
The first #MSS2025 afternoon session was all about enzyme evolution 👏 @paolalaurino.bsky.social - live from @oistedu.bsky.social, Ida Helene Steen @cdeepsea.bsky.social and Ioannis Riziotis @ebi.embl.org shared their latest work, using very different approaches to this fascinating topic 🤩
Coming back very close to home with Ida Helene Steen, from the centre for deep sea research in the BIO department at uib, on extremophiles in hydrothermal vents. #MSS2025
Live from Okinawa is Paola Laurino to start the afternoon with protein structures and functions. #MSS2025
What a fantastic morning at #MSS2025 🤩 After an opening by BIO Dept. head @unibergen.bsky.social Ståle Ellingsen, three amazing talks by @lowelab.bsky.social, Georgia Rapti @embl.org and Camila Esguerra @ncmbm.bsky.social on System Evolution 👏
Caffeinated restart with Jingwei Xu exploring the structure and evolution of Archea, with a shout out to Norse mythology with Asgard and Loki’s castle #MSS2025
Concluding the first session is Camila Esguerra, from our brother @embl.org partner center NCMBM, on using zebrafish as a model for neurological disorders. #MSS2025 @ncmbm.bsky.social @uio.no
Chris Lowe @lowelab.bsky.social kick starting the scientific sessions with the evolution of gorgeous Echinoderms. #MSS2025
Our close colleague and friend Ståle Ellingsen, head of the BIO department at UIB, giving introductory remarks to kick start the day. #MSS2025
#MSS2025 Michael Sars Symposium 2025 start, with the organizers Tim Lynagh and Pawel Burkhardt @pawelburkhardt.bsky.social from @msarscentre.bsky.social
