Entiendo el espíritu del recorte en el presupuesto para Fondecyt Reg 2025, pero… ¿26 millones no será mucho?. Tengo menos presupuesto para gastos op que en mi iniciación. @ANID_Chile

Nuevo preprint de nuestro laboratorio

Our Single Particle Cryo-Electron Microscopy international course is starting now! We will learn hands-on this complex technique so that students from Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay can implement it in their home laboratories 🔬 Here we go 💪🤓

In two independent Science studies, researchers used time-resolved crystallography at an x-ray free electron laser to capture the process of #DNA repair from picoseconds to microseconds. Learn more on #DNADay ⬇️ 📄: scim.ag/6Jd 📄: scim.ag/6Jc

The new @EMDB_EMPIAR cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) browser allows you to see proteins up close in the cellular environment. Over 1,800 high-resolution reconstructed tomograms from cryo-plasma-FIB milled Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells are available. ebi.ac.uk/about/news/ann…

🔬💪 We're excited to present the global experts who will be guiding you through the fundamentals of Cryo-Electron Microscopy at @IBR_CONICET. Hurry! ⏳ This is the final week to apply: bit.ly/CryoEM-Course. #ImagingTheFuture

4. The "Molecular Clock" allows us to quantitatively study the evolutionary process. As genetic mutations accumulate at roughly constant rates in certain DNA sequences, by comparing the sequences of different organisms, we can infer when any two species last shared an ancestor.

Perdida de cola en hominidos podría estar relacionada a la aparición de espina bífida en el desarrollo, esto debido a una pequeña alteración genetica 👀

How did we lose our tail? A simple question.. but it wasn't really asked before! We discovered a plausible scenario for the genetic mechanism that led to tail loss. Amazing that such a big change may have been caused by such a small genetic event. nature.com/articles/s4158… @BoXia7

@marenas5000 @LabBqUchile Justamente, la combinación de AI, partículas individuales y tomografía nos llevarán a otro nivel de estructuras en biología.

@vcasfe @LabBqUchile Que interesante curso. Y porque la bofetada Victor? Por lo potente de la tecnología?

Great CryoEM course in Sao Paulo Brazil 😊. 2 very intense weeks of learning and also a slap in the face of reality in the discipline. @LabBqUchile #spcryoEM #cryoEM

Siempre seguimos mirando al futuro 🙌  @TatoVila_1962 nos cuenta cómo surgió #CEBEM a partir de un sueño común de un grupo de amigos apasionados por la Ciencia y la Biología Estructural!

El "Loco" chileno (Concholepas concholepas) está participando en un concurso internacional llamado Molusco del año . A varios científicos chilenos nos ayudará la secuenciación de su genoma. Voten por favor!!! Termina hoy 12 de la noche @JorgeBabul @uchile tbg.senckenberg.de/mollusc-of-the…
