🚀Join our research group! 🧪 . We are looking for a Postdoc and a PhD student to join our newly established Plant Terrestrialization Lab at @BiologyCentre CAS. If you are curious about #PlantEvolution and the alga #Draparnaldia, get in touch with us!

Draparnaldia had a strong presence at the 21st Phycology Conference in Göttingen! 🌿In her talk, Lenka Caisova presented the potential of Draparnaldia as a new model, while Claudia Ribeiro introduced the biology of the alga through her poster. Big thank you to the organizers! 🔬

Last week, Lenka gave an exciting talk at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf 🎓 on our research into plant terrestrialization 🌱 and the evolution of multicellularity 🧬! Honored to present Draparnaldia as a new model system 🔬Big thanks to Guido Grossmann for making it happen!

New year, new exciting achievements for our group! 🌟🌟 Draparnaldia was named "Alga of the Year 2025" by the German Society for Plant Scientists!🎉 A big distinction that will bring Drapa's potential to the public attention! Check it out👇.

🚨New Preprint alert!. The #Draparnaldia genome: alternative mechanisms for multicellularity and terrestrialization in green plants is now available on @biorxiv_plants !. Check it out and learn more about #Draparnaldia and #PlantEvolution 🌿🧬.
