🔬CNIO Stop Cancer incorpora un nuevo grupo para ‘fotografiar’ a nivel atómico y en 3D las estructuras que hacen invasivas a las células cancerosas. #CNIO #Investigación #SaludyBienestar Consulta toda la información 👇 n9.cl/r90bp

Had a blast today at Centro de Biología Molecular Severo Ochoa , great discussions and wonderful people 🥰

REGISTRATION OPEN - CNIO meeting, Machines acting on DNA and RNA, 2025 May 28-30th in Madrid, organized by The Nogales Lab , Rafa F Leiro , Llorca lab Bringing leaders in structural biology in Chromatin structure, DNA repair, RNA processing, Replication, Transcription and Translation.


Contrato postdoctoral! Si estás interesado en estudiar la inestabilidad genética asociada a la replicación en la levadura Saccharomyces cerevisiae, tenemos disponible un contrato postdoctoral en nuestro laboratorio por tres años. Contacta a través de [email protected]


La inteligencia artificial crea por primera vez un tratamiento para una enfermedad olvidada por las farmacéuticas. Los investigadores, con el nobel David Baker y Susana Vazquez Torres a la cabeza, hablan de “democratizar” el descubrimiento de medicamentos: elpais.com/ciencia/2025-0…

great work by Susana Vazquez Torres and team at Baker Lab 👏🏻

Congrats to MCB's Eva Nogales on her election to the Fellowship of the Royal Society! 👏🎉 The Royal Society The Nogales Lab royalsociety.org/news/2025/05/n…


We are delighted to share our collaborative work with Ibarra Lab Borja Ibarra and Fernandez-Leiro Lab Rafa F Leiro, in which we dissect autoregulatory mechanism of Twinkle helicase! Big thank you to Sjoerd Wanrooij Sjoerd Wanrooij and other reviewers for a smooth process! Greg Ciesielski ;

Excited to share our latest paper, published in Nature Communications! As first author from Borja Ibarra, I’m proud of this collaborative effort with Ciesielski_Mito Lab and Rafa F Leiro, where we dissect the autoregulatory mechanism of the mitochondrial helicase Twinkle. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4146…
