New paper out in Nature Communications: www.nature.com/articles/s41... We found >250 metabolic enzymes on chromatin. Only ~20 had been reported before. This means hundreds of metabolic enzymes may have unexplored nuclear roles.

And then our first PhD student wins the award for Best Thesis of the Year… a wonderful Christmas present 🎄✨ It really makes us feel we’re doing things the right way. Congratulations, Dr. Natalia Pardo Lorente, so well deserved 👏🎓 @crg.eu @upf.edu @prbb.org

Big congrats to Sara Sdelci @sdelcilab.bsky.social for being as one of the 2025 @embo.org Young Investigators (YIPs), joining 28 outstanding early-career scientists recognised for excellence and originality in the life sciences. She is the eighth CRG scientist to join the prestigious programme!

I am (Sara Sdelci, @crg.eu) very happy to have been selected as an @embo.org YIP! Thank you for selecting our project on how nuclear metabolism shapes cellular proliferation and aging; we are truly excited for the beautiful science ahead!

Dr. Jane Goodall has passed away. Her groundbreaking work with chimpanzees and her lifelong dedication to conservation changed how we see and care for our planet.

Happy to share the Biodiversity Cell Atlas white paper, out today in @nature.com. We look at the possibilities, challenges, and potential impacts of molecularly mapping cells across the tree of life. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Science: only when you write up the manuscript, you realize what you should have done.

Being open to new ideas: Metabolic Enzymes in the Nucleus as Chromatin Instructors? Merging #chromatin #epigenetics #metabolism To understand new cellular rules.

🚀 We’re excited to share our latest publication in collaboration with Verena Ruprecht's group at @crg.eu Mechanobiology meets Nuclear Metabolism www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Fantastic to see this wonderful piece out! Happy to have contributed to this effort 💪

We made it among the BEST PICTURES OF THE YEAR by @natureportfolio.bsky.social www.nature.com/immersive/d4... Beautiful image representing in red the nuclear localization of MTHFD2 in pluripotent colon organoids by @NataliaPardoL Find the manuscript here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thanks to @bpodaily.bsky.social for choosing our beautiful colon organoid as a picture of the day. MTHFD2 in the nucleus in red: bpod.org.uk

Our amazing CRG PhD community are celebrating their annual symposium today and tomorrow. Follow our first year students on Bluesky for snippets about all the amazing talks featured this year: @lassemiddendorf.bsky.social @mattezambon.bsky.social @iseultleahy.bsky.social

hey everyone! i made a list of some useful starter packs (primarily biology/earth sciences with a few bonus things thrown in) to share with friends who have joined bsky in the last week and thought it may be useful for some people here too! 🌍🧪 #SciSky #BioSky docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I have curated a second "metabolism" starter pack, as the first quickly got full. Please have a look, and I am happy to add others (sorry for those who may appear in both): go.bsky.app/CH1MctZ

Amazing opportunity to join a great group.

🧪Apply for your #ECR place at our Workshop on 'Mechanometabolism Unleashed: The Interface of Cell Mechanics and Metabolism', organised by Marco Foiani, Ana-Maria Lennon-Duménil, @vickysanzmoreno.bsky.social & Giorgio Scita 📆Apply by 13 Dec bit.ly/3OnLFvV #BiologistsWorkshops

Both #Cancer #Research starter packs are now completely full! ~300 researchers, oncologists, students, postdocs, patient advocates, and organizations supporting cancer research 🧪🔬⚕️ I hope you'll find these useful to build our community here Pack 1: go.bsky.app/FEoaJMc Pack 2: go.bsky.app/6EcjWNA

This month we published 2 MANUSCRIPTS in @natureportfolio.bsky.social , nature communication 1. Natalia Pardo discovers the role of nuclear MTHFD2 in centromere stability 2. Espinar and Garcia-Cao reveal the role of nuclear IMPDH2 in the DNA damage response. Nuclear Metabolism is on 🔥
