IBE Agenda at the PRBB Open Day

Guided tour in the Comparative Genomics Laboratory

Following the success of the previous edition, predoctoral researchers Marc Palmada and Alejandro Valenzuela are once again participating in OpenPRBB to explain their research through a genomics workshop for all audiences. Attendees will help the researchers identify species based on genetic information. Pre-registration on the website https://openday.prbb.org is required for guided tours of the building in groups of 10 people, accompanied by researchers. The minimum age is 12 years old. Younger participants (6 to 12 years old) can take part in a dynamic space with age-appropriate experiments.

Scientific Talks: "Unicellular Little Helpers and How Animals Appeared on Earth" – Victoria Shabardina

When: October 7th, 12:00 PM (30 minutes)

Where: PRBB Inner Square

We are multicellular creatures, meaning we are made up of millions of cells. But life on Earth wasn't always like this: many years ago, our planet was inhabited solely by unicellular organisms. During evolution, these individual cells had to learn to cooperate, and to listen to each other so they could accomplish a great feat of nature in the end: the diverse world of animals we now live in.

Victoria Shabardina, a postdoctoral student at the Evolution of the Eukaryotic Genome lab at IBE, explains in this talk how, thanks to the unicellular relatives of animals, we can learn how and why animals appeared on Earth.
