The study's approach connects deep-time fossil analysis with modern foram genetics and biology, a bridge rarely made in the field. Researcher Julie Meilland notes this convergence as significant for understanding the evolutionary process.
“It was very refreshing to see these worlds connect because very often people doing more modern research don't necessarily connect to people doing deep-time research.”
