In our latest #SciArt profile, we meet Queralt Tolosa @queralttolosa.bsky.social, a biochemist/developmental biologist turned scientific illustrator. Find out about her background, her artistic influences and how she ended up becoming a scientific illustrator: thenode.biologists.com/sciart-profi...

Let’s explain the “classic” allergy (Type I) using #allergy to cats as an example! 🐱 There are different types of allergies, and symptoms can differ. Many complex factors determine if and when you develop an allergy, and much is still unknown 👀 #SciArt #SciComm #Science #DigitalArt #Animation

🤩Delighted with my new editorial! @crg.eu researchers combined genomic and structural data to overcome saturation, enabling ancient relationship reconstruction even with predicted protein structures. Now in @naturecomms.bsky.social: shorturl.at/l5ovK #Science #Research #SciArt #SciComm

CRG researchers have merged genomic and structural data to tackle saturation, the main obstacle for the reconstruction of ancient relationships. Crucially, the approach works even with the predicted structures of proteins that have never been experimentally determined. 📷@queralttolosa.bsky.social

New editorial work for @crg.eu! I had the pleasure of illustrating Lehner lab's most recent findings, published in @nature.com, where the creation of the "Human Domainome v1" reveals the root cause of heritable diseases. shorturl.at/JiK2j #Science #Research #SciArt #SciComm

Introducing Human Domainome v1, the largest and most comprehensive library of human protein variants to date, which maps the effects of +500K mutations across 522 domains. The study by @benlehner.bsky.social and Toni Beltran is out now in @nature.com. Illustration by @queralttolosa.bsky.social.

I’m thrilled to see my artwork on the #cover of #MolecularCell! A study by @imilenkovic.bsky.social et al used epitranscriptomic rRNA fingerprinting to identify tissue-of-origin and tumor-specific signatures. @NovoaLab @crg.eu #sciart #scicomm #science #cancerresearch

So happy to have illustrated such a cool project! 🤩 All the best to the Novoa Lab 💪🏻 #cancer #research #sciart #illustration #scicomm #digitalart #Procreate

Using nanopore sequencing, a team led by @evamarianovoa.bsky.social has discovered different cancers have unique molecular ‘fingerprints’. The findings set the foundation for creating new, non-invasive diagnostic tests that detect the disease faster and earlier than currently possible.
