Identified the genetic mechanisms for the acquisition of resistance to antibiotics in H. parainfluenzae

The work of the Epidemiology of Bacterial Infections research group of IDIBELL and HUB indicates that the bacteria could achieve the resistance through the acquisition of mobile DNA fragments.

Created the largest public database of genetic variants that regulate the expression of genes in the colon to date

The study has also permitted identify genetic variants that modify the expression of genes in the colon and that are associated with diseases such as colorectal cancer, but also with other organs such as the brain, showing the relationship between the intestine and the brain.

Voice analysis with artificial intelligence models may allow early detection of bulbar involvement in ALS

An investigation by the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) and the University of Lleida (UdL), in which IDIBELL and the Hospital de Bellvitge has participated, has developed automated voice markers to identify early affectations of the disease.

IDIBELL researchers define a new mechanism of aging in a bone marrow stem cell in women

To equilibrate the gene expression between XX females and XY males, one of female X chromosomes is inactivated. Researchers from IDIBELL Regenerative Program has discovered that this inactivation is affected in bone marrow aged stem cells.
