Visites guiades, tallers, xerrades... activitats de tota mena i per a totes les edats ⏩ Tothom alerta que aviat obrim les portes a la ciutadania en una nova edició de l'#OpenPRBB❗️ 🗓️ 4/10, de 10 a 14h 👆 Us explicarem què fem, com ho fem i on ho fem ℹ️ https://tuit.cat/jfg0q

Congratulations to the graduates and thank you for the invitation!

Excited with two new preprints on evolution of molecular structure, in RNA (doi.org/10.1101/2025..., @n-martin.bsky.social) and proteins (doi.org/10.1101/2025...). Both RNA and protein structures are often conserved across evolution, but the underlying reasons are very different.

“The complexity of adaptive landscapes” @n-martin.bsky.social, @crg.eu #festamajordegracia #ESEB2025 satelite outreach activities by @lcatmon.bsky.social AUGUST 20th, #BCNevolutionDay

#festamajordegràcia is concluded for @lcatmon.bsky.social it's been 1 more bucket list ✅️ to bring #evolution to one of the most important festivities of #Barcelona Thanks #44Perill, @ajuntamentbcn.bsky.social #eseb2025 @sesbe-org.bsky.social and for the support and trust! Activities Summary 👇

🔬Yesterday at Festa Major de Gràcia, Nora Martin explained how maths and simulations help us understand biology through the lens of high-dimensional fitness landscapes. 😌We are very happy to see our research explained in this setting! 🎁Making science accessible to everyone is key.

In a session at 17h on Wed 20th, Nora Martin will discuss The complexity of adaptive landscapes at the Festa Major de Gràcia. You are welcome to attend! -Event info: lacienciaalteumon.cat/evolucio-gra... -Nora is a CRG Independent Fellow at the Collab: barcelonacollaboratorium.com/fellow/nora-...

Due to the stochasticity of biological processes, many realistic genotype-phenotype maps are non-deterministic (ND). ND maps from distinct computational models share features at a coarse-grained level. These shared features can be reproduced with a simple model: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Masters' project available: mmres.bist.eu/research-pro... Please get in touch if you are interested 🧬💻

On Thursday, Jacobo Aguirre (CSIC-INTA) will be the next speaker at the Seminar Series! 🌌 “Emergence of complexity in the origin and early evolution of life” 📅 03/04/2025 – 10:00 🗳️ Registration: t.ly/jPOlc 👩‍🏫 Host: @n-martin.bsky.social
