Nice-seq

excited to announce the program of the next @NiceSeq on #AI and #Genomics. Please use this link to register: univ-cotedazur.zoom.us/meeti… organised with @edanchin @richcopley @mtrabucchi2 @pbarbry @c_braendle speakers: Sakshi (@niceyeastlab) @pedrobeltrao @Chromozz @florajay_

excited to announce the January 2022 @Yeast_Journal special issue on #Yeast #Ecology and #Communities: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page… edited by the fantastic lineup (all in Twitter!): @StelkensLab @kiran_r_patil @yeastCellCell @pjboynton @FcocubillosR please RT (and submit...)

Very happy to share @SimoMozzachiodi @lorenzotattini et al work: Aborting meiosis overcomes hybrid sterility biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… with colleagues from @institut_curie @montpelier @Supagro @goteborgsuni @uca_research largely founded by @AgenceRecherche

super happy to share @MelaniaDangiolo (happy birthday btw) @MatNamo @iAmphioxus +etal+coll. @ircan @uca_research. Big thanks to @AgenceRecherche to have largely funded this work under different calls (labex, IDEX, collaborative grants) nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Yeast under light control: The rise and shine of yeast optogenetics onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… Great review from Francisco Salinas and @lflarrondo labs that describes current and future optogenetic approaches in budding yeast

Big congrats to our former colleague Anders and his collaborators for this landmark study in retracing dog history and connections with human.

First "Fantastic Yeasts" come with a vintage cover and guidelines of novel yeast species description from the Yeast editorial board coordinated by Marc Andre Lachance: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/…

2/2 We measured asexual and sexual reproduction traits and survival in a collection of a thousand of genome-sequenced yeast isolates, across environments. We used both gene candidate and GWAS approaches to connect the life cycle variations to the genetic make-up of the species.

1/2 glad to share @MatNamo, Ben etal work: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… We show that domestication is the most dramatic evolutionary event in the budding yeast history, having fundamentally reprogrammed its life cycle.
