Is the linear map of cell signaling a myth?
New research suggests the reality of cellular networks is more complex.
@savitski-lab.bsky.social & @saezlab.bsky.social combined experimental and computational expertise to test how we map kinase–substrate interactions.

Archaea may not be well known, nor well studied, but these microorganisms can live in the most extreme environments, but also right on our skin. They’re everywhere.
EMBL researchers are now exploring their unique ecosystem adaptability and link to evolution.
