Today we had a great EvoMG Seminar by Dario Valenzano @dvalenzano.bsky.social from FLI, who told us about some of their recent aging work using the fascinating short-lived killifish.

"The main fates after gene duplication are gene loss, redundancy, subfunctionalization and neofunctionalization".

In our new review, @fedemantica.bsky.social and I argue we are missing the most prevalent one: specialization. And the same applies to alternative splicing! 1/7

We’re recruiting a PhD student to use comparative omics to investigate why some viruses can efficiently infect both human and mosquito cells, but lead to different infection outcomes. Fully funded position by @evomg-bcn.bsky.social at our lab at UPF-CRG and the Diez lab.

Who would have thought that an actual sequence of a #microexon (GCAAGGACATATGGGCGAAGGAGA from CPEB4) would be in the headline of an article in @elpais.com! Congrats to the Mendez, @xsalvatella1.bsky.social and @jjlucaslab.bsky.social labs for this amazing work!
