We had a great time this morning at the @ibub-ub.bsky.social Research day! The @geneticsub.bsky.social was represented by a talk by Aleix Bayona and a round table discussion and presentations by Florenci Serras, @sofiajaraujo.bsky.social @vtoulis.bsky.social Carmen de Sena and Cristina Gonzalez!

Next March 2026 the joint meeting of the @sebioldev.bsky.social @gfeev.bsky.social and Dutch societies for #DevBio will take for place in Potsdam. From the @geneticsub.bsky.social it counts with the participation of @sofiajaraujo.bsky.social as organizer & @isabelalmudi.bsky.social as a speaker

It was great to participate in this year’s #EDRC2025 and meet so many friends, discuss our projects and listen to so much great science! Looking forward to #EDRC2027 in Bonn!

I love Caprice! 😋

Great news from the @crg.eu on @monicabettencourt.bsky.social appointment as the new director. This is excellent for the CRG and for catalan #science, for Monica is an excellent choice and a leader to a bright scientific future! #womeninscience
