Open science is a key principle of the Innovative Training Network (ITN) ChromDesign, which aims to advance our understanding of chromatin biology and epigenetic regulation. As part of this commitment to openness and transparency, the ChromDesign network has produced a collection of high-quality datasets that are freely available to the scientific community. These datasets represent […]

It doesn’t happen so often that one has the opportunity to share a wonderful conversation with top-notch people locally (even if it was online) to share all our thoughts with people from our local communities. I’ve been part of panels and conferences abroad, and I was thrilled to have this session in Barcelona finally. “Què […]

Go out with friends, grab a beer and take part in a Science SLAM – Scientists explain their research with short talks to a mixed crowd in a casual atmosphere like theatres or clubs in the evening. The ChromDesign fellows and I went out in Barcelona for a night of entertainment, culture, and of course, […]

As described in the Biosummit’s website, a yearly conference usually hosted at MIT in Boston by the Community Biotechnology Initiative at the MIT Media Lab, «A space for the global community of DIY biologists / community biologists / biohackers / biomakers and members of independent and community laboratories to convene, plan, build fellowship, and continue the […]

If you thought that biologists can only talk about zebrafish and mice, you are mistaken! Together with PhD students of our sister network EpiSystem, we followed an ethics course to talk about current ethics issues in biology and beyond. This course was led by Luca Marelli, adjunct professor of bioethics at the University of Milan […]

During a couple of days, 19th -21st February 2020, a challenge was posed to all ChromDesign researchers to leave the labs aside and embrace a new way to communicate science from a Transdisciplinary perspective. Be designers, tinkerers, and even artists to develop new skills to communicate science that will be handy for many years! For […]

Science Guerrilla. Science in a physical space, «from the lab to the street», is a workshop that took place in February 2020, in Barcelona (Spain) within the Transdisciplinary Science communication Training at Elisava organized for the ChromDesign project researchers. I, Carla Molins Pitarch, developed the session with Dr. Miquel Santasusana. During the first conversations with […]

Science, tapas, friends, and the best scientists in the field in sunny Barcelona – what’s not to like here? Chromdesign ITN fellows got to spend in February 2020, 10 days in Spain summarising network progress and accomplishments, learning new scientific techniques, and visiting all the touristic spots while eating the best Spanish food. But first […]

27th of September 2019, Barcelona FabCafè.  ChromDesigners take part in one activity in Barcelona that will bring Chromatin and other scientific knowledge to society. How would that go? 300 different cities all over Europe, last Friday of September, what could go on? A festival, a party? Almost right!. The European Researchers’ Night (ERN), a major […]

It was finally gonna happen! After 6 months of me being called ‘ESR4’, I was looking forward to the Kick-off to understand what it really meant to be an Early Stage Researcher. I was excited to get to know my fellow Chromdesigners, however quite nervous at the same time, wondering if I would fit in. […]

EMBL is an intergovernmental organisation specialising in basic research in the life sciences, funded by public research monies from more than 20 member states, including much of Europe and Israel, and two associate members, Argentina and Australia.
