Join us on June 6, 2025 at Media City Bergen for a day of exceptional talks. This year, our invited speakers will explore the theme: "Decoding signals and unveiling architectures, from molecules to organisms".Â
A team led by researchers at EMBL's European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), in collaboration with a PhD candidate in the Christiaen group at the Michael Sars Centre, developed an open-source large language model (LLM) framework designed for custom biomedical research.
By conducting systematic observations of animals in the laboratory, researchers in the Christiaen group uncovered crucial information on the post-embryonic development of Ciona. Their results, including a new culture protocol, are published in Open Biology.
A new study published in Science Advances reveals evidence of electrical signaling and coordinated behavior in choanoflagellates, the closest living relatives of animals. This elaborate example of cell communication offers key insights into the early evolution of animal multicellularity and nervous systems.
