Truly inspiring to see what’s cooking in multi-omics and beyond, and to meet outstanding researchers from across the field 🤝 Big thanks to the organizers @FLGenomics for such a great event! 🙌 #ResearchCommunity #Networking #Science #FOG2026

We attended The Festival of Genomics and Biodata 2026 #FOG2026 at ExCeL London 🇬🇧 We presented 4 posters and enjoyed an incredible atmosphere full of cutting-edge research 🔬✨ #Genomics #Biodata #Bioinformatics #ScienceConference

Dr. Basellini - “Assessment of cell and metabolic impacts of Microtubule Targeting Agents (MTA) in neurodegeneration and neuron models” 👏 Dr. Santhapuri @ssprashanth99 - “Study of metabolic adaptations in neurological diseases in the search of new therapeutical strategies” 👏

A few weeks ago, two members of our group successfully defended their PhD theses 🎓 Huge congratulations to both for the hard work and dedication! 🚀🧠 #PhDDefense #ResearchLife

📌 Us desitgem el millor per aquest Nadal 🎄i el nou any per estrenar! 🌟🧬💫🧪🌟 @BQBiomedMolUB ub.edu/portal/web/dp-…

Gran experiència al congrés #11MetNetInt, organitzat per @MetNet_Bcn i la Societat Catalana de Biologia @SCB_iec a l’històric edifici de l’IEC! 😍 Vam presentar 4 pòsters i una short talk de la Dra. Cascante 🎙️ Un congrés inspirador que impulsa la #recerca en #metabolisme 🧫

Great experience at #11MetNetInt, organized by @MetNet_Bcn and @SCB_iec at the historic building of the Institut d’Estudis Catalans! 😍 We presented 4 posters and a short talk by Dr. Cascante 🎙️ An inspiring meeting giving visibility to #metabolism #research 🧫 #CancerResearch

Congratulations to Prof. Marta Cascante (#IBUB, @UniBarcelona) on being named Honorary Fellow of @MetabolomicsSoc! She has pioneered dynamic metabolic flux analysis and its use to identify metabolic drug targets and disease subtypes, and has strongly supported young scientists.

@SCB_iec @MHA_laboratory @Maribel_h_a @BQBiomedMolUB And we finish Day 1 of #11MetNetInt with, first, 5 very nice and diverse short talks by @CascanteLab @BQBiomedMolUB , Adrià Vilaseca @mitometlab @idibaps, @BeltraMarc @IRBBarcelona , Ayda Roudi @MHA_laboratory @BQBiomedMolUB & Jorge Álvarez @m_roves @idibell_cat ...

Presentem el nostre pòster "From Core to Full Genome-Scale: Modelling Cancer Metabolism with Enhanced Predictive Power" al #JBI2025 XV Symposium on Bioinformatics. 🔍 Hem combinat enfocaments top-down i bottom-up per construir #models metabòlics més realistes en #càncer de còlon.

🧪🔝Nova publicació del @BQBiomedMolUB pel grup @CascanteLab Es determina que la combinació de dos fàrmacs podria millorar la teràpia contra el càncer colorectal. web.ub.edu/web/actualitat…

Excited to share our latest research, now out in @Oncogene! We reveal new insights from combining Palbociclib and glutaminase inhibition in colorectal cancer. Check it out:

Research at @IBUB_UB found that combining Palbociclib and a Glutaminase inhibitor has a strong synergistic effect, preventing #resistance and significantly reducing tumor growth in #colorectal cancer cells. Read the article here >>>>> nature.com/articles/s4138…

Fantàstica participació de predocs, postdocs i professorat del @BQBiomedMolUB a la 2a edició 'Early Career Day' @IBUB_UB. I la nostra enhorabona a l’Alejandro Tapia (predoc grup BQI) i la Cèlia Rodríguez (predoc grup NFM) pel premi als millors pòsters. ub.edu/portal/web/dp-…

Great environment to share our work and learn about the latest developments at the10th @MetNet_Bcn meeting on Mitochondria Metabolism in Health and Disease. Shout out to our former PhD @jtarragocelada for the amazing presentation of his research at @TheCrick!

Last week, we were honored to attend the inaugural congress of the Sociedad Española de Bioinformática y Biología Computacional. We learned a lot about new trends and the state-of-the-art in bioinformatics in Spain! Exciting times ahead! #SEBiBC #Bioinformatics"

Exciting times at the EACR 2024 Cancer Metabolism Congress in Bilbao a couple of weeks ago! We shared our latest findings and connected with fellow researchers in the field. Stay tuned for more updates! #EACR2024 #CancerResearch Thanks to the organisers @ArkaitzLab
