An international study involving researchers from the Hospital del Mar Research Institute reveals a key interaction between two proteins that are fundamental in tumour development. To achieve this, molecular modelling and artificial intelligence techniques were used, revealing for the first time a new structural model that describes a previously unknown cell-signalling mechanism. The research opens the door to designing drugs that act on the interaction between the two proteins, thereby improving current cancer treatments.

An international study published in the journal Nature has designated a subset of the so-called dark proteins - proteins with no known function - as peptideins. Characterising them opens the door to studying them and analysing their functions.

In an article published in the journal Neuron, Dr. Rodrigo Quian Quiroga proposes that the way we organize our memories constitutes the mechanism that gives rise to human intelligence. The human brain generates memories from the representation of the stimuli it receives, endowing them with meaning. This is a mechanism of abstraction that does not merely store information. Published scientific evidence indicates that this mechanism is not found in other animal species, suggesting that it is a key element in the construction of our intelligence.
