Gràcies a totes les persones que vau assistir a la IV Jornada de Microbiologia! 🦠

Va ser un plaer compartir coneixement, retrobar-nos i descobrir noves idees dins del món microbià.

Ens agrada fer comunitat i seguir aprenent plegats👩‍🔬

Fins la propera!

L'objectiu de la jornada és establir un punt de trobada per a tota la comunitat científica catalana que treballa en l’àmbit de la microbiologia, que ens serveixi per a conèixer-nos, intercanviar experiències, establir contactes i afavorir sinergies i col·laboracions científiques.

#PCBCommunity |🦠 Científics de @ibmb-csic.bsky.social i @idibell.bsky.social descobreixen que els embrions poden eliminar infeccions bacterianes abans de formar el seu sistema immune i descriuen un mecanisme de #fagocitosi similar al dels glòbuls blancs en embrions humans. 🔬
