The Euglena International Network (EIN) is a new initiative advancing research into Euglenoid protists. These fascinating organisms are very diverse and include heterotrophs, photosynthetic and predatory species. Together with the Kinetoplastea (trypanosomes and leishmanias), with which they share distinctive biological features, they constitute the Euglenozoa. Recent advances in Euglena will be discussed and we will be proposing new research directions and what the “Grand Challenges” for Euglena research are. So, whether you are interested in Euglena ecology, genomics or biotechnology, we would welcome your interest in EIN.
