We have a new branch in the family tree of animals: Atreyea- a previously unrecognized lineage among the closest unicell relatives of animals.
Led by @konsmitsi.bsky.social & @freejakoba.bsky.social together with a fantastic team of collaborators.

π¦ Big day for #Bat1K! Our new study is out in Nature, combining 103 bat genomes + 44 fossil taxa to explore bat evolutionary history.
Very happy to have contributed microRNA complements to this huge comparative effort. π§¬π¦
