Researchers from the Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG), Spanish National Cancer Research Center (CNIO), and Spanish National Research Council (IBMB-CSIC) have made a significant advance in understanding cell division by creating the first atomic-scale ‘movie’ of microtubule construction. This achievement, published in “Science,” was made possible through the participation of the Basque Resource for Electron Microscopy (BREM), which provided essential high-resolution imaging for the study. This discovery paves the way for more targeted treatments in diseases such as cancer and neurodevelopmental disorders, marking a milestone in biomedical research.

Los centros de investigación Achucarro Basque Center for Neuroscience (ACHUCARRO) y el Instituto de Biofisika (BIOFISIKA, CSIC-UPV/EHU), en colaboración con la Fundación Biofisica Bizkaia, han creado una plataforma de investigación denominada “Basque Biomodels Platform for Human Research (BBioH)”. Esta plataforma tiene como objetivo el desarrollo de “biomodelos celulares humanos”, es decir, una especie de “avatares” para el estudio de la biología humana, tanto en la salud, como en enfermedades.
