IBEC Symposium / Conference / Congress / Workshop

Self-assembly and self-organization are fundamental principles that govern the formation of complex structures and functions across biological systems. This workshop will explore how these processes emerge in nature, how they contribute to the organization of life, and whether similar behaviors can be replicated in engineered systems. By bringing together perspectives from biology, chemistry, and physics, ... Read more

NET-RARE second workshop will explore how humanized and bioengineered models can replace 2D cultures and murine models to better understand and replicate rare disorders. The goal is to examine the latest approaches for studying rare diseases in personalized human models. The opening seminar will feature Juanma Fernández (IBEC). He will present a 3D model designed to study various muscular diseases, along with Organ-on-Chip ... Read more

Hi ha un gran consens entre la comunitat investigadora en general sobre la necessitat de reformar les pràctiques d’avaluació de la recerca. L’avaluació de la recerca, els investigadors i les organitzacions de recerca han de reconèixer els diversos resultats, pràctiques i activitats que maximitzen la qualitat i l’impacte de la recerca. Això, requereix basar l’avaluació ... Read more
