🎉 BIOMICS turns 1 year old today! Happy birthday to this exciting project – and congratulations to all of us who are helping it grow into a mature and well-developed “being”. 🚀✨ Here’s to many more milestones, achievements and collaborations ahead! 💡🔬🌍 #BIOMICS #HorizonEurope

We insist – come and do a PhD with us! 🙂

Last days to apply! Cool project, cool cities! :-) (Please repost! 🙏)

Come and do a PhD with us! 🙂

Our Project Manager represented us at the Twinning Info Day, joining 11 other projects to share experiences and collaborative solutions! #BIOMICS #Twinning #Research #Collaboration #HorizonEurope

🚨🚨🚨 Please RT! We're looking for a postdoc to join an exciting joint project between our lab @upf.edu & @crg.eu (Barcelona) and the Sander lab @mdc-berlin.bsky.social (Berlin) investigating how alternative splicing and microexons influences the maturation of pancreatic islets. Deadline: 30/09/25👇

Coordinator José Maria Pimentel presents the pioneering INDEG-ISCTE EE Postgraduate Course in Critical Thinking for Decision Making in which Nuno will lecture. youtu.be/5fOG6KAvsSs?...

BIOMICS Kick-Off – A Fantastic Start! 🌟 brought together 60 participants from @gimmfoundation.bsky.social, @crg.eu , @ebi.embl.org, and @ethzurich.bsky.social, fostering collaboration, knowledge exchange, and a shared vision for the future - we are excited to work together. A huge thank you to all!

Nuno will proudly and enthusiastically be one of the lecturers of the pioneering ISCTE EE Postgraduate Course in Critical Thinking for Decision Making (execed.iscte-iul.pt/applied-onli...), brilliantly coordinated by José Maria Pimentel.

🗣️ Nuno Morais, BIOMICS Coordinator and Group Leader at GIMM @nmoraislab.bsky.social has launched the "Young Data Scientists Mini-Symposium" by presenting to BIOMICS early researchers the activities that will be implemented throughout the project and how they can benefit from them.

🌟 Exciting Day! 🌟 We're thrilled to be hosting the Young Data Scientists Mini-Symposium, happening right now! 🎉 This event brings together bright minds in data science to explore cutting-edge research, foster collaboration, and celebrate innovation.

🌟 BIOMICS Kick-Off Meeting Is Almost Here! 🌟 This exciting event will bring together 59 participants from our 4 partner institutes – @crg.eu, @ebi.embl.org, @ethzurich.bsky.social, and @gimmfoundation.bsky.social – along with members of our Advisory Boards. #BIOMICS #DataScience

📣 Happening now!! CBBS sponsored by @biomics-twinning.bsky.social at @gimmfoundation.bsky.social, hosting Professor @hagentilgner.bsky.social from @weillcornell.bsky.social, talking about "Brain isoform expression at single-cell resolution in (developmental) time and (anatomical) space". 🌟 Join us!

We started the week in style, with Miguel (PhD) brilliantly defending his (second) MSc thesis on transposable elements 🎓, and closed the week in style, with Alex @a-kaizeler.bsky.social eloquently explaining his PhD project on stress granules to RNA aficionados @gimmfoundation.bsky.social 🔬.

Expert's Dilemma: the more specialized you become, the less open you are to creative solutions from other fields. But the more you explore other fields, the more you risk losing credibility in your home field. Interdisciplinary work is still not really embraced by academia.

We are delighted to lead @ec.europa.eu-funded BIOMICS (coordinated by Nuno and managed by @dianavieira.bsky.social) and partner with @embl.org (as well as @crg.eu and @ethzurich.bsky.social) in advancing biomedical data science and fostering critical thinking. Stay tuned: official launch in January!

On the 6th of December, Nuno joined the PIN Summit (www.pin-technology.com/pinsummit24) to discuss "Cognitive biases, perverse incentives, big data". Grateful for the kind invitation and for the friendly and stimulating interactions!

We’re recruiting a PhD student to use comparative omics to investigate why some viruses can efficiently infect both human and mosquito cells, but lead to different infection outcomes. Fully funded position by @evomg-bcn.bsky.social at our lab at UPF-CRG and the Diez lab. www.crg.eu/en/content/t...

@djmarques.bsky.social's seminar was indeed fascinating and a perfect demonstration of how complicated differential equations can be made intelligible to non-mathematicians if the biological processes they model are eloquently explained. 🎓

Join me today at GIMM, 16:15, for a fascinating talk on circadian rhythms! 🌙🕒 “Modeling Circadian Rhythms: From Single-Cell Clocks to the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Master Clock” 📢 Daniel Marques, Nuno Morais Lab 📍 Egas Moniz Building, Floor 0, Room 8 (IFA)"

We kick off our activity in Bluesky expressing our pride of Francisca and Jacek (@jacolm.bsky.social) for an excellent job yesterday, explaining machine learning approaches for biomarker discovery to oncobiologists at GIMM. 👏
