IBEC Seminar: Magali Suzanne

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Mechanical impact of cell delamination on tissue dynamics, in developmental and tumoral contexts Centre de Biologie Intégrative, CNRS/UMR 5088, Université Toulouse III, Toulouse, France How mechanical forces drive morphogenesis is a fundamental question in the field of biomechanics. Combining imaging, genetics, biophysical and modeling approaches, we found that apoptotic cells, far from being eliminated passively, ... Read more

IBEC Seminar: Dr. Benjami Oller-Salvia

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Development of chemical and synthetic biology tools to generate biotherapeutics and to tackle brain diseases Dr. Benjami Oller-Salvia, IQS In our group we develop chemical and synthetic biology tools to generate biotherapeutics and to tackle brain diseases. In the first part of the talk, I will report our efforts toward developing strategies to construct conditionally-active ... Read more

PhD Discussion: Isabela Fortunato y Marina Martinez

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Cell migration up and down fibronectin gradients Isabela Fortunato, Integrative cell and tissue dynamics group The ability of cells to perform directed migration is essential for biological processes, such as tissue morphogenesis, immune function, and cancer invasion. Directed cell migration is often triggered by spatial gradients in the cellular environment (e.g., chemical gradients, called chemotaxis, ... Read more

IBEC Seminar: Theodore Alexandrov

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Spatial single-cell metabolomics reveals metabolic cell states EMBL Recent discoveries put metabolism into the spotlight. Metabolism not only fuels cells but also plays key roles in health and disease. In parallel, emerging single-cell technologies opened a new world of cell types and states previously hidden beneath population averages. Yet, methods for discovering links between metabolism, ...

IBEC Seminar: Loris Rizzello

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Towards an evolutionary-driven universal therapy against (intracellular) pathogens Università degli Studi di Milano We are living a time where we believe antibiotics are the cornerstone of any infectious disease-based therapy. It is definitely out of question that antibiotics saved millions of people worldwide in the last century, and that they are still doing it very ... Read more

IBEC Seminar: Zev Gartner

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Building tissues to understand how tissues build themselves Zev Gartner, UCSF Cells assemble into tissues and organs through an active process termed self-organization. Harnessing tissue self-organization will ultimately advance applications as diverse as disease modeling and regenerative medicine, while revealing new strategies for fighting disease. However, progress towards these applications is limited by our incomplete ... Read more

IBEC-IFIBYNE Webinar Cycle (online) 12th July 2023 at 16:00 Javier Ramon

Organ on a chip models to emulate multi systemic metabolic diseases Javier Ramon, IBEC Existing on-chip tissue models typically represent a single organ, limiting systemic drug investigations. Microscale tissue analog systems aim to improve drug and toxicity predictions across various organs. However, multi-organ devices are limited, and none have explored skeletal muscle and pancreatic islets. ... Read more
