Finally, my first research article as first author is out! 🥳🔬 I invite you all you to have a read and share your thoughts with me :) dmm.biologists.org/content/13/10/…

Finally, I could give my contribution to science ahah! My first paper ever, together with my friend @crispiketchup 🥰 A review on the importance of P2X7 receptors in ALS, enjoy 🎉 frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

Last Thursday, I had the opportunity of chatting via Skype with the kids from the @colegiosaldana in Burgos and tell them about my research and ALS. It was an incredible experience! 👩‍🔬 Join @SkypeScientist to share science with kids from schools all around the world!

This week I had the pleasure of presenting my first poster in the #1stEUpurinemeeting in Santiago de Compostela. Here is my happy face! Thanks to my dear @beatriztabliega for the great help with the design 💚

Check out this recently published article in which I am co-author! 🙌 @Cells_MDPI

Today is #MNDGlobalAwarenessDay. In my PhD, I’m trying to test a new therapeutic target for MND or ALS, the P2X7 receptor. Today I extracted and analysed DNA from ALS mice, that mimic the human disease! @ALSTDI @PurinesDX #ALSAwareness #DiaMundialdelaELA

Yesterday, ESR13 @crispiketchup and I had a great time giving a scientific workshop on drug discovery and development for the young (hopefully) future scientists of 4th degree of primary school at the @cosantodomingo in Algete (Madrid). They seemed to enjoy it a lot too!! 😊

#PhDlife is full of ups and downs. Here is a column published in @nature which perfectly describes what we go through while we work in what we love the most! nature.com/articles/d4158… #Science #Research

@purinejoyment In my defence I’ll say that this tweet was written by @AntonioRamFdez! 🥳

Today March the 27th is our ESR13 @crispiketchup ‘s birthday!! Feliz cumpleaños! 🎂

@purinejoyment @crispiketchup That means... You! Ahahahah Happy birthday!!!

Today is #PurpleDay, dedicated to raise awareness about epilepsy, a life-compromising disease affecting 1 in 100 people worldwide. In @PurinesDX, our colleagues @giorgiaconte5👩‍🔬,@AntonioRamFdez👨‍🔬, Mónica 👩‍🔬 and James👨‍🔬 are working hard to unravel the causes of this disease!

We really enjoyed the last day of our In vivo Imaging Workshop at @Femtonics! Check this amazing video of the blood stream in a mouse brain in vivo! #PhDlife #InVivoImaging

Starting the weekend visiting Budapest before our In vivo Imaging Workshop! #Networking #ScienceAndWine

Today, 8th of March, we are celebrating the #InternationalWomensDay . In this thread I will talk about women whose work constituted a milestone in science. Apologies in advance for all those women I will not mention; fortunately, the full list would be too long for a thread.

Take a look at this amazing breakthrough published today by @NatureNews! nature.com/articles/d4158…

Nice job, Spain! 👍 "Spanish science reforms aim to make life easier for parents" nature.com/articles/d4158…

New month, new PhD in charge! March means Cristina from @FundacionTH , Madrid. Stay tuned :)
