📣 New PRBB-CRG conference 📋 Topics in Neurogenomics: Using AI to Study Endophenotypes & then Having it Take Over 🗣️ Mark Gerstein - @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social  📆 July 21 - ⏰ 10:00 hosted by: Sílvia Pérez-Lluch - @crg.eu    📍 #PRBB Maria Skłodowska-Curie room

Researchers @rodericguigo.bsky.social and Ramil Nurtdinov, contribute to a new @nature.com paper from the #ENCODE Consortium, mapping more than 92 million DNA elements that regulate human genes. A valuable new resource for understanding genome function and disease. 🔗 www.crg.eu/en/news/enco...

From cash donations to mentoring migrants to personal growth opportunities: our researchers @ameliebaud.bsky.social and @piacosma.bsky.social describe how and why they juggle charity work with their busy day jobs in the lab.

How voluntary work can boost your career in science

Supporting charities can bring career benefits and provide valuable social connections.
