About us - Partner 3: Barcelona Site
We perform small RNA-seq to detect miRNA and other non-coding RNAs (tRNAs, piRNAs snRNAs, snoRNAs etc.) through the CRG Genomics Facility. We also perform the basic bioinformatics analyses: detection of DE genes, network analysis with miRNA targets, and enrichment analysis. Results will be validated through qPCRs on independent samples.
PROMPT OFFICIAL TEAM DESCRIPTION
Dr. Mara Dierssen (MD, PhD) leads the Cell and Systems Neurobiology group of the Systems Biology Programme at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona.
The overall goal of her research is to understand cognition as an emergent property of neural networks and how genetic perturbations in mental disorders modify the way the brain integrates information and produces behaviour and cognition. She is a world expert in the field of neurobiology and pharmacology.
