CRG researchers reveal how the coral Oculina patagonica resists marine heatwaves by switching between two feeding modes: drawing energy from algae when it can, and feeding for itself when it can’t. A glimpse of how life adapts in the warming waters of the Mediterranean 🌊

The first, co-authored by @bernardo-rodriguez.bsky.social, discovered more than 167,000 structural variants across the 1,019 individuals, doubling the known amount of structural variation in the human pangenome. Most variants were rare, which will help accelerate the diagnosis of rare diseases.

Viruses are entirely dependent on their hosts to reproduce. They ransack living cells for parts and energy and hijack the host’s cellular machinery to make new copies of themselves. Herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1), it turns out, also redecorates the human genome.

Extraordinary times in Spain. April 28’s once-in-a-lifetime massive blackout💡didn’t stop the CRG. Thanks to our Facility Management crew and the @prbb.org, generators kicked in, protocols ran like clockwork, samples stayed frozen and years of research were safeguarded. We thank our crisis heroes!
