Nice to see Margarita presenting our work with
@beaplab.bsky.social and @luisjagago.bsky.social on Maop2, the first #Magnificent8 missing unicellular lineages closely related to animals we got in culture! #animalorigins #diversity #holozoans #protistsOnSky
So proud of the work and enthusiasm of Marina presenting our search for the #Magnificent8 missing lineages closely related to animals. 😻💪💪 #protistsOnSky
Watch our new video (in Spanish!) to learn why we are focused on searching the #Magnificent8 – eight lineages that remain unknown and that may be key to understand the origin of animals. 🧬🦠 #multicellularity @ibe-barcelona.bsky.social @csic.es @prbb.org

So inspired by the enthusiasm, positivity & dedication of Marina & Alicia! ✨ This duo is priceless! Merging experimental insights 👩🔬 and bioinformatics power 💻, they give me full confidence in our quest for the #Magnificent8 lineages. #WomenInSTEM #PhDLife @ibe-barcelona.bsky.social #protistsonSky
Watching Semana Santa processions, we were inspired by the incredible strength and determination of the men and women carrying massive floats—if they can do that, why can’t we persevere until we find the #Magnificent8, those elusive lineages key to animal origins? #protistsonSky
We’re searching for 8 unknown lineages closely related to animals, known only by their 18S rDNA. We call them the #Magnificent8.
But who are they? See what the team says in the video! #multicellularity #protistsonSky @ibe-barcelona.bsky.social @prbb.org @csic.es @erc.europa.eu
