Interspecies H2 transfer between anaerobic ciliates and H2-consuming bacteria and archaea is fairly common. But here the bacterial partner conveys a new ability to its ciliate host: sensing and orienting along Earth's geomagnetic field. Grateful to have been a part of this! #protistsonsky

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/...

New findings from Rika, Eva, Tony and I: We used evolutionary biology techniques to investigate how nitrogen sustained early life on Earth, and found that ammonium was key! It could have been supplied by hydrothermal activity and other planetary processes. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
