@CAMS_2022
. Another great day of interesting talks and discussion.
Habría que indicar que esto aplica a humanos y mamíferos. Los eritrocitos de otras especies (como reptiles, pájaros, peces o anfibios) son mayoritariamente NUCLEADOS. Como curiosidad, en mamíferos abundan los eritrocitos nucleados durante el desarrollo embrionario y en anemia 🧐.
🔴Los 𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐬, a diferencia del resto de células del organismo, no tienen núcleo.
¡Ni falta que les hace! Así tienen mas espacio para transportar oxígeno.
En sus 3-4 meses de vida, cada eritrocito da 150.000 vueltas alrededor de tu cuerpo.
Another reason to be glad to have had

There are 2 amazing things in this video: 1) how clearly Carl predicted the problems derived from an extreme greenhouse effect in 1985, 2) the dialectical ability to explain such a complex problem with simple words. LEGEND

En mi caso, el haberme quedado en el laboratorio donde hice la tesis ha resultado nefasto a la hora de solicitar proyectos y becas postdoc. Los criterios de movilidad de estas convocatorias es el motivo n°1 por el cual la gente se va de España a seguir con su carrera científica😔

Productive discussion and many new ideas came up today during

Lo triste es que España lleva muchos años sin ser capaz de ofrecer oportunidades laborales serias y atractivas para estas personas altamente cualificadas, mientras que invierte muchos recursos en su formación. Desde luego, no parece una estrategia de desarrollo muy brillante...

This Review describes the state of the art in imaging extracellular vesicles in animals to study their release, biodistribution and uptake, and covers labeling strategies, microscopy methods and discoveries made in model organisms. A great read!
Very interesting study from
@wojtek_pokrzywa
lab, introducing novel functions for exophers apart from quality control. Importantly, they confirm the release of aberrant mitochondria through these structures and the connection with autophagy pathway.

De acuerdo en casi todo. Sin embargo, el adjetivo indefinido sí es muy útil. Nos permite acceder a algo crítico como una hipoteca o a cosas tan surrealistas como una tarjeta de cliente Alcampo que no conceden a alguien que no disponga de un contrato indefinido (o un avalista).
