Investigadors de l’IBEC, l’IRB Barcelona i la UB identifiquen l’estratègia que usen els Enterobacteris per adquirir resistència i patogenicitat.L’augment d’infeccions causades per bacteris multiresistents és un problema creixent de salut pública, sobretot en entorns hospitalaris, on la situació és greu.
SMALL cover for researchers
The first cover of a top nano-science journal this month features the work of several IBEC researchers. The journal Small (Volume 5. No. 11 – June 5 2009) dedicates its cover to a paper published by four researchers from IBEC´s BioNanoPhotonics group led by Dra. María García-Parajo and two scientists from the Nijmegen Center for Molecular Life Sciences (NCMLS), in the Netherlands.
The Cystic Fibrosis Association of Catalonia supports research study at IBEC
The Cystic Fibrosis Association of Catalonia (Asociación Catalana de Fibrosis Quística) provides active support to the research conducted by Doctor Eduard Torrents, a member of IBEC´s Microbial Biotechnology and Host-Pathogen Interaction Group, into the enzyme that promotes the growth of the bacteria linked to this disease.
Researcher at IBEC publishes in Nature Physics
An article by Dr. Xavier Trepat, senior researcher of IBEC´s Cellular and respiratory biomechanics group and the Department of Physiology Sciences of the University of Barcelona, contributes for the first time an experimental answer to the question of how cells move during biological processes as diverse as the development, metastasis, or regeneration of tissues.
