Un paseo de 60 minutos en la naturaleza 🚶🌳 basta para reducir los efectos del estrés✴️➰👤

El simple contacto con entornos verdes mejora sustancialmente nuestro bienestar.

After a couple of months of extraction optimization and tests... We got it ! Fast sequencing and already enough data for the experiment. Thanks @nanoporetech.com Hopefully the genomes will show us something quite surprising. Stay tuned !
