I’m thrilled to share that the first manuscript of my PhD is now live on bioRxiv 🎉: Compensatory Evolution to DNA Replication Stress is Robust to Nutrient Availability. Let’s dive into what we found and why it matters! 🔍🧵 (1/7) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Congratulations to PhD student @MarianaNatalin6 on her first author paper, detailing new findings on the inner workings of yeast adaptation to DNA replication stress in different environments. Amazing work Mariana! 🧬⚗️

Este é o percurso da manifestação. Que ninguém se engane e vá bater à porta do antigo ministério…! Partimos do Ministério da Educação, Ciência e Inovação, na esquina entre a Av. Infante Santo e a Av. 24 de Julho. #juntoscontraprecariedade
Congratulations to PhD student Victor Mello from the Sartori lab on his pre print that takes a deep dive into the relationship between energetics and conformation of AAA+ molecular motors 🦾🔬🧬 Really cool work Victor!

Today, I reflect on the legacy of @IGCiencia over the last 60 years and what it has meant for research and the scientific community in Portugal and beyond. IGC was never just a place—it was a pioneering model. #IGCLegacyLivesOn 1/5
If you are in Lisbon, come to the last beer hour @IGCiencia, to end this chapter while toasting for even better beer hours with GIMM to continue our wonderful scientific discussion in our patio! Thank you @phd_igc + all IBB students for all the great events!
New paper alert! 🚨 Congratulations IGC PhD student @afonsomendes92 on this incredible body of work, when you can’t answer your biological question, why not develop a new method to make it work! Check it out! 👏

Another week, another fascinating chalk talk! This week we had @romana_yanez teach us about her impressive PhD work on splicing factors in plants! 🌱
Exciting times ahead! The 2023 IBB PhD cohort presented their projects at the annual workshop to the entire institute last week.🧑🔬 Very thoughtful projects that will no doubt push the boundaries of existing knowledge in their respective fields, well done to all! 🧬⭐️
After the holiday break we resumed our Chalk Talk series with PhD student Monica Louro from the @KarinaXavierLab teaching us about community interactions and contributions to bacterial biofilm formation! Keep up the exciting research Monica! 🧫
Unforgettable @OpticalBiology Symposium earlier this week!! Thanks @phd_igc and @ChampalimaudF for hosting us and it was so cool chatting to all our new science friends

What an AMAZING week at #ThymE learning everything about my favorite cell type! Also: so happy and honored to receive one of the ThymE24 Grants, thank you for checking out my poster and discussing T-ALL with me 😁🫶
Huge congratulations to Dr. Marco Louro, who defended his thesis with enthusiasm yesterday combining a unique mix of modelling and empirical work to create all in all a super thesis! Well done Marco and good luck for the future!
With longer days and summer approaching fast, we resumed our PhD student Chalk Talk series at @IGCiencia! First up this year was Gwen from the Treeck Lab. Gwen introduced her project on how plasmodium surface antigens are trafficked, using very elegant techniques!
