🆕 New publication alert! 🍷

We show how nitrogen supplementation shapes Saccharomyces yeast metabolism, fermentation, and aroma.

Strain-dependent effects: inorganic N boosts speed ⚡, organic N enhances key aromas 🌸.

Attending to the IV Foro Colabora on Agrobiotechnology organised by Bioval. Creating strong bridges between basic and applied science, academia and industry, is so important. Scientists also need to make impact on our local economy and employment.

After a couple of months of extraction optimization and tests... We got it ! Fast sequencing and already enough data for the experiment. Thanks @nanoporetech.com Hopefully the genomes will show us something quite surprising. Stay tuned !

Genome sequencing & single-cell transcriptomics continue to produce findings that challenge the idea that #cancer is purely a genetic disease. This Essay delves into #omics data that questions the somatic mutation theory & presents alternative theories based on GRNs & tissue fields.🧪

Our newest research in @nature.com

We built a robot (!) to track plant-fungal trade networks. By following half a million fungal highways & nutrient flows within them, we discovered how plants & fungi build hyper-efficient supply chains
