25 anys de la publicació de la seqüència del genoma humà 🧬 Aquest 2026 es compleixen 25 anys de la publicació de la seqüència del genoma humà, una fita científica que va marcar un abans i un després en la biologia i la medicina moderna⬇️

BREAKING: The family of Alex Pretti releases a powerful statement about his senseless murder at the hands of Trump's masked fascist goons. Please share this far and wide... "We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital," the family said in a statement provided to CNN. "Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman." "The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed." "Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you." It is our responsibility as Americans to get the truth out there. Petti was not attempting to harm anyone. He was swarmed, beaten, and disarmed by vicious federal agents who were looking for someone to hurt. Once they had removed his gun — which he had a legal permit to carry — they executed him in cold blood by firing numerous bullets into him. Then, the Trump administration proceeded to immediately falsely smear him as a "terrorist" who wanted to carry out a mass shooting against law enforcement. They're utterly shameless. “He cared about people deeply and he was very upset with what was happening in Minneapolis and throughout the United States with ICE, as millions of other people are upset,” said Pretti's father Alex. “He thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, and he knew it was wrong, so he did participate in protests.” Rest in power Alex. The rest of us will carry on the fight. Please like and share.

🧬A study by BSC and @CRGenomica reveals for the 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 time that human gene maps are biased towards European ancestry. 🌍💻Thanks to the use of #MareNostrum5, over 800 million molecule sequences from 8 different global populations, belonging to various genetic ancestries, have been analyzed.

With deep sadness we mark the passing of Amos Bairoch, a founding member of both Swiss-Prot and UniProt. He will be fondly remembered for his passion for biocuration, meticulous care, and the energy and inspiration he brought to the field of bioinformatics and the UniProt team.

The attacks on foreign researchers at Harvard and elsewhere are appalling. Scientists from other countries have enriched my education, training and research at every single stage of my career, and have become my closest and most cherished colleagues and friends. If there is a problem with researchers from other countries in the US it is that we do not value them enough, we do not appreciate how incredibly lucky we are that they have chosen - and were able - to come here, and we do not fight hard enough to make sure that they are welcome and that their status is not used against them in any way.

Bandera negra al cor. Salvador #PuigAntich en la memòria. 51 anys de la seua execució... #Memòria #justícia i #Reparació

She could be executed at any moment, her last hope has been destroyed! The court has rejected Pakhshan Azizi’s request for a retrial, despite clear evidence of her innocence. This was the final hope for her family, her friends, and all of us who fought for her freedom. Now, at any moment, her life could be taken. is not a criminal, she is a humanitarian who risked everything to aid those suffering from war and violence, even working on the front lines in Syria to help children affected by ISIS. Her only “crime” was standing up for the most vulnerable. Yet, she has been sentenced to death for an offense she never committed. This is not just one execution, it is part of the Islamic Republic’s brutal retaliation against the Woman, Life, Freedom movement. I call on the international community, especially women across the globe, to stand with us Iranians in the fight to save her life. We cannot let this courageous woman, who fought against terrorism and injustice, be executed in silence.

Seqüenciant en català: AR+I participa en la publicació del genoma complert d’una papallona amenaçada d’extició És el primer cop que tant la introducció com el resum de l’article científic d’una seqüenciació d’una espècie es fa en català ℹ️ ow.ly/EeHS50UGMWm #ARImuntanya

Una noticia trista per comencar l'any

We are excited to celebrate the 3,000th genome release 🥳 Thank you to all our 58 Affiliated Projects for contributing your hard work. Keep on sequencing 🧬
