The team used this method to study the diversity of the cytoskeleton and of the photosynthetic machinery in several different diatom species. Many of these species were isolated from environmental samples collected during the EMBL-led TREC expedition.

Diatoms – microscopic algae found almost everywhere there’s water – make up ~25% of Earth’s annual oxygen production. EMBL scientists have found a way to reveal their inner structures by combining cryo-fixation with ultrastructural expansion microscopy. https://t.co/BxmvHag8Kb

In a pilot study we will explore microbial biodiversity along the Rhine, uncovering how environmental changes affect the smallest forms of life in freshwater systems. This new pilot study is a step towards continent-wide ecosystem monitoring across Europe.

Can an AI tool help us better understand the origins of cancer? Researchers from EMBL's Korbel Group have developed a new AI method – MAGIC – which, through a game of molecular laser tag, is shedding light on how chromosomal abnormalities form in cells. https://t.co/qYNMyAFoex

Researchers at EMBL Barcelona highlight malaria-induced disruption of pericytes, bringing us a step closer to understanding how cerebral malaria damages the brain, and how these damages could be prevented or reversed. https://t.co/4AbnNJEsoy

Growth charts guide child healthcare, but standard charts often don’t reflect the growth patterns of children with rare conditions. A new method, LMSz, creates condition-specific growth charts and is being integrated in @deciphergenomic. https://t.co/12ixNersK4
