Excited to start the Third General Assembly of the @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social with top tier talks, collaborative lectures and important @csic.es computational insights. And of course discussing how to move ahead another year!!

Muy orgullosa de anunciar la Escuela de Verano en Bioinformática Avanzada @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social, junto a @sebibc.bsky.social. Presenta avances recientes en formato “train the trainer”, con materiales reutilizables, ideal para profesionales y docentes que enseñan bioinformática. tinyurl.com/EscVern

The “curse of interdisciplinarity”:
Fields like bioinformatics fall between the cracks in grant evaluation.
🧬 For bios: Too little mechanistic validation
🧮 For math: Not enough new theory
💻 For computing: “Just” applied computing
Interdisciplinarity is essential, but evaluation hasn’t caught up.

Frontiers | Beneficial microbes mitigate molecular stress responses and accelerate developmental pathways in host animals during spaceflight As humans continue the manned exploration of space, it is critical to understand the impact of this harsh environment on the beneficial microbes that interac...

How do host-microbe interactions are affected in spaceflight? This question can be addressed with squids, RNA-seq and bioinformatics! Read the whole paper here. Memorable collaboration with @jamiefoster.bsky.social from @ifas.ufl.edu @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @i2sysbio.es

Tomorrow I will be delivering a keynote talk at the Swiss Bioinformatics Workshop @ Göteborg, discussing how multiomics research advances thanks to tool development. Love the fun facts, b.t.w @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @hitseq.bsky.social @iscb.bsky.social

Presentación del informe Science4Policy elaborado por la @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social y PTI neuroenvejecimiento. “La IA va a ser fundamental para abordar los retos de una sociedad que envejece” Javier de las Rivas explica este trabajo en nombre del equipo de redacción.

Euphoric for my institute @i2sysbio.es receiving the 2nd @csic.es Sustainability Prize. Proud of the tireless & impactful work of our Committee. Especially happy to share recognition with friends from IDAEA & @geo3bcn-csic.bsky.social. Congrats @icmabcsic.bsky.social and @ibmb-csic.bsky.social

Yesterday I had the privilege of joining the “fishbowl” at the AX Aula Forum in Murcia. Inspiring conversations on technology, humanism, aging, and global health.

Honored to assume the Presidency of the Spanish Society of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (SEBiBC). Looking forward to working with our members and the broader bioinformatics ecosystem in Spain to strengthen collaboration and visibility @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social

To join or not to join: handling biological replicates in long-read RNA sequencing data Long-read RNA sequencing (lrRNA-seq) has revolutionized transcriptomics facilitating the study of alternative splicing and resulting in identification of thousands of novel transcripts. While isoform ...

Our latest preprint on how to best combine multiple samples in lrRNA-seq experiment. Not, trivial as your capacity for detecting known and novel transcripts is affected. We discovered that results depend on data and reconstruction algorithm. @nanoporetech.com @pacbio.bsky.social
