I participated in the III University–Industry Knowledge Transfer Conference at the University of Córdoba, where I presented my Master’s thesis as a poster. It was a great opportunity to explore knowledge transfer to industry, share my research, and learn from inspiring speakers and fellow students 🙌🏻

Just finished my internship at the Station Biologique de Roscoff 🇫🇷
I’ve worked with marine picocyanobacteria, combining microscopy, culturing & flow cytometry, plus genomic search. So grateful to the ECOMap team for this amazing and enriching experience! Merci beaucoup!! 💙

A few months ago, the IV CEEBI (State Congress of Biosciences Students) took place in Granada. This year, I had the pleasure of being part of the organizing team — a group of dedicated and science-passionate people. 🧪🫂

World’s first personalized CRISPR therapy given to baby with genetic disease
Treatment seems to have been effective, but it is not clear whether such bespoke therapies can be widely applied.
