#Recerca

Per primera vegada, investigadors de la #UPFBarcelona i l’@ibe-barcelona.bsky.social han provat fora del laboratori una eina capaç d’identificar, gràcies al seu ADN, l’origen geogràfic de ximpanzés confiscats a xarxes de tràfic il·legal.

#Recerca

El Barcelona #CryoZoo, projecte únic al món que pretén salvaguardar i estudiar biomaterial d'espècies animals, rep un ajut de l’organització internacional Revive & Restore, per estudiar i millorar la reprogramació de cèl·lules mare d’animals salvatges.

El catedràtic i investigador ICREA, @tmarquesbonet.bsky.social, del Dept. de Medicina i Ciències de la Salut i investigador principal de l'@ibe-barcelona.bsky.social (@csic.es - UPF), ha estat guardonat amb la Medalla Ramón y Cajal 2025 de @raciencias.bsky.social

L'enhorabona! 🥳

Muy agradecido por este honor. Gracias a todos los colegas, estudiantes e instituciones que han hecho del estudio de los primates un modelo evolutivo para estudiar las bases moleculares de nuestra espècie.🦍 @UPFBarcelona @icreacommunity @cnag_eu

1️⃣/ Fascinating new piece in @cenmag.bsky.social on the hunt for dinosaur proteins! The 2005 Schweitzer T. rex collagen reports remain contentious after 20 years. Recent Edmontosaurus data adds fuel to the debate, but I cofess I remains cautiously sceptical. #palaeoproteomics

Hello Blue Sky community! As our first post, we share a group picture from last Friday, when we gathered and enjoyed typical "calçot" onions from Catalonia, Spain 🧬🧅.

It's coming. Our paper on the potential and limitations of paleoproteomics. Artwork by Johanna Krueger. :-) @genomebiolevol.bsky.social

Neglected primates no more! 162 lemur genomes from 50 species in our latest paper: Ecological and anthropogenic effects on the genomic diversity of lemurs in Madagascar! 1 of 2 lemur evolution papers in Jan25 @natureecoevo.bsky.social

3 big takeaways below! rdcu.be/d4XWV @tmarquesbonet.bsky.social
