Y aquí va la distribución completa de proyectos:
- 2/3 partes de los proyectos tienen 50.000€ o menos por año. Esto no cambia.
- La financiación media por proyecto baja ligeramente (2%) respecto al PID2023.
- El porcentaje de éxito cae al 46% (49% en el PID2023).

La ciencia en España se estanca. 😕

The discovery, published in @NatureComms and led by Elena Monte and @marti_qc from CRAG in collaboration with the @UmeaPlantSci, shows that chloroplasts can switch on photosynthesis genes by modifying histones, clear evidence of epigenetic control in early plant development.
