Interview with Deborah Coen, historian of science at Yale University and author of Climate in Motion: Science, Empire, and the Problem of Scale (Chicago, 2018).
Researches of the UAB have developed a new software for the identification of the features of the peptide repertoires presented by HLA class I and HLA-DR molecules to T lymphocytes. T lymphocytes recognize protein fragments...
The normal shape for a red blood cell is a bi-concave disc. However, a lot of pathologies are generated by a distortion in this shape due to different causes like a defects in the cell membrane skeletal architecture. Acoustic...
Researchers from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont have evaluated the body size evolution of Mikrotia magna, a giant rat which dwelled in the paleoisland of Gargano during Late...
Currently, plastic waste and its consequences are receiving a lot of media attention. Every day, vast ammounts of plastic debris are released into the oceans, having an impact on aquatic...
A new study published by ICTA-UAB states that the co-management model of small groups of fishermen together with the government contributes to a greater abundance and habitats of species. Moreover, it offers social and economic...
An international team of paleontologists including Fabio M. Dalla Vecchia, associated researcher at the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont (ICP) and a renowned pterosaur specialists, have described the over 200-million-year-old new species Caelestiventus...
A team from the Plant Physiology Laboratory from the UAB Ecology and Animal & Vegetal Biology and Ecology has studied through proteomic analysis the mechanisms by which the species Urochloa decumbens has an...
A new ICTA-UAB project led by researcher Jordina Belmonte will study the effects of extreme meteorological events on the biological biodiversity present in the atmosphere in order to predict changes in the environment and possible affectations on...
Calotriton arnoldi is a newt species which lives exclusively in the Montseny massif. With a very low number of representatives, isolated in subpopulations, one could expect the species to present genetic endogamy problems. However, studies investigating the genetic “health status” of...
