Des chercheurs de l’IPBS (@chrisverollet.bsky.social et coll.) ont découvert que la protéine moésine régule les ostéoclastes, les cellules qui résorbent l’os. Sans elle, les os s’affaiblissent. Une piste prometteuse contre l’ #ostéoporose.

Santé et changement climatique.
Une mystérieuse maladie cutanée a frappé plus de 1000 pêcheurs sénégalais en 2020-2021. Des chercheurs de l’IPBS et leurs collègues révèlent enfin la cause dans @embomolmed.org : une toxine d’une microalgue marine déclenche une inflammation sévère.

Buenos Aires is beautiful and I keep posting about how I'm having a great time, but don't forget the tragic situation for science in Argentina at the moment. Argentinian scientists are working despite this and they deserve our full support! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The PhD defense jury of Ms. Sarah Monard is hard at work preparing for tomorrow's big day...
Serious business requires serious sustenance, after all!
