Mònica Bayés, Programme Manager at the CNAG, participates in the largest genetic study carried out on psychiatric disorders. The study, published in Nature Genetics, analyses the five most common psychiatric disorders with greater impact at a personal and social level: schizophrenia, bipolar...
The researcher from the Centro Nacional de Análisis Genómico (CNAG) and the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) Marc A. Marti-Renom has participated in a study that reveals the potential of rapid whole-genome sequencing in a hospital setting to reduce the time taken to diagnose extensively drug-...
A new study by an international team of researchers has, for the first time, sequenced the genomes of a large number of Great apes from across Africa and South-East Asia. The work, lead by Dr. Tomas Marques Bonet of the Institut de Biologia Evolutiva (IBE) of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra and the...
- Researchers found out that the pathogenic fungus Candida albicans uses a different genetic code from all other organisms and were able to understand how this fungus changed its genetic code.
- With this new knowledge, the team was able to artificially modify for the first time the genetic code...
A Spanish research team coordinated by Carlos Duarte from the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) has begun to sequence the genome of the deep global ocean using over 2,000 samples of microorganisms from the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans during the Malaspina expedition. It is the...
- The first steps to create this alliance were made by over 70 leading health care, research, and disease advocacy organizations in order to enable secure sharing of genomic and clinical data.
- 3 of the partners are Spanish: the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), the Centro Nacional de Análisis...
