- Reposted by angela oliverioJust on time for the holidays! Happy to share the published version of the discovery of leptophytes, a new deep-branching and widespread group of microalgae based on plastid MAGs (ptMAGs). Now with additional support from a mitochondrial MAG (mtMAG) of leptophytes. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- "A newly identified amoeba can survive at the temperature of a medium-well done steak" lol @scifri.bsky.social an apt comparison a hadn't previously considered... A pleasure chatting about our research led by @hbrappap.bsky.social & with a wonderful team of colleagues.
- Reposted by angela oliverioAnnouncing our next #NSFfunded workshop on "Telling Stories Through Data", co-lead by myself + @vgwschutte.bsky.social! It’s half bioinformatics data viz & half #SciComm - this year’s focus is host-associated microbiome datasets. Apply here to join us (form closes 1/10) bit.ly/TSTD2026 #symbiosky

- Reposted by angela oliverioNSF - Forced reorg - POs down ~ 40% (DRP, most rotators not renewed, retirements) - Forced move (and we have to pack and clean) to a building with no furniture, little to no conference space for panels, inadequate 🛜, …) I personally love the boxes they gave us for packing. “Details matter” 🙃
- Delighted to share some coverage of our new preprint (doi.org/10.1101/2025...) from Scientific American and thank you @sciam.bsky.social @andreatweather.bsky.social for taking the time to chat with @hbrappap.bsky.social and I about why we are so excited about the geothermal 𝘐𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘦𝘣𝘢
- Thanks nature news for featuring our recent preprint on 𝘐𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘦𝘣𝘢 led by @hbrappap.bsky.social (check out preprint here: doi.org/10.1101/2025...) #protistsonsky
- Reposted by angela oliverioOur attempt to give multinucleate cells the spotlight they deserve (seriously, they’re everywhere), led by the fearless @mrosjac.bsky.social and with @Markus Ganter doi.org/10.32942/X2M... We’d love your feedback while this goes through the peer review process! #MicroEvoSky #ProtistsonSky 🧪🌏
- Introducing ** Incendiamoeba **, a eukaryote that can live at temperatures well beyond what we thought possible. 63C!! Read @hbrappap.bsky.social thread to see what we’ve already started to learn from this amazing organism! doi.org/10.1101/2025... #MicroSky #protistsonsky 🧪 #evobio
- So happy to announce our new preprint, “A geothermal amoeba sets a new upper temperature limit for eukaryotes.” We cultured a novel amoeba from Lassen Volcanic NP (CA, USA) that divides at 63°C (145°F) 🔥 - a new record for euk growth! #protistsonsky 🧵
- Also, I am so grateful for funding - notably from the NSF PurSUiT program - that has valued and recognized the importance of biodiversity & discovery science and that is enabling our lab to continue this geothermal research. Incl @maureenmkearney.bsky.social @evolutionpirate.bsky.social & others
- Well actually... 𝘐𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘦𝘣𝘢 just encyst 😜 they can recover from 70C fine! (but not 80C) @hbrappap.bsky.social
- What a cool paper, and this feeding video!!!! 😱
- Reposted by angela oliverio🚨Our collaboration with @centriolelab.bsky.social & @gautamdey.bsky.social is out today in @cp-cell.bsky.social We show that #Expansion #Microscopy is a broad-spectrum modality for Euks, enabling 3D phenotypic maps rooted to phylogeny. #ProtistsOnSky #SciComm #SciSky www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

- And this paper! @jfreude2.bsky.social @dumack.bsky.social I've been so curious about Rhogostoma since they can be incredibly abundant in soils, awesome to see this!! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- This was such a neat study it got posted twice on our 'cool papers' channel in lab slack 😅 #ProtistsonSky
- Accepted version of our article "Half of microbial eukaryote literature focuses on only twelve human parasites" now out in ISMEJ! Awesome effort led by undergrad Joanna Lepper and with @hbrappap.bsky.social.

- New lab pre-print up! "Twelve species of human parasites make up half the literature on microbial eukaryotes" doi.org/10.1101/2025... We (led by UG Joanna Lepper and with @hbrappap.bsky.social) quantified all mentions of protist species in the scientific literature 🧵 #protistsonsky #microsky
- First, protists are often forgotten when we talk about microbiology. This is obviously reflected in the number of ALL mentions of protists, including all parasites on pubmed (242,844) vs ONLY e. coli (312,057) (Jensen, 2025)

- An PLEASURE chatting with @markowenmartin.bsky.social on the #mattersmicrobial podcast about microbial **eukaryotes**, including the super high temp amoebae we (notably @hbrappap.bsky.social) have found in geothermal springs. If you want to hear more: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uxxi... #microsky 🧪🦠
