I am extremely happy to announce that I have been awarded an @erc.europa.eu ERC Starting Grant to lead the ProtistEye project! We will be diving into the function, architecture, and diversity of eye-like structures across different protists to better understand their evolution. Stay tuned for more!

Super excited that our paper led by @sandinmm.eurosky.social in PNAS is out! We show that crown-group eukaryotes were already taxonomically and ecologically diverse throughout the Mesoproterozoic, revealing complex communities well before the Neoproterozoic radiation. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

🎉 Excited to share that Elisabeth Hehenberger and I have been awarded a 🇵🇱🇨🇿 NCN–GAČR grant! We'll explore the diversity, ecology, and interactions of Perkinsea, a fascinating and largely overlooked group of parasitic #protists in #freshwaters. Looking forward to this exciting collaboration!
