This is a series of lectures on molecular biology and biomedicine at a very basic level, intended to bring these disciplines closer to the general public. The lectures, in addition to having interesting scientific content, are adjusted and suitable for a non-specialist audience not involved in science and current research.

In order to achieve these objectives, the series involves great communicators who are able to seduce their audience and transmit knowledge, while at the same time exposing the hottest topics in biomedicine to the populace.

The latest conferences organised:

• Great Ideas of Biology by Sir Paul Nurse, Nobel Prize in Physiology
• The French, Spanish and Catalan Flag Problems by James Sharpe
• The human genome. From past to the future by Roderic Guigó
• Using the present to read the future: a dream or a nightmare? Cedric Notredame
• Cell reprogramming: a real tool in regenerative medicine? Maria Pia Cosma (YouTube)
• Genetic complexity and medicine: predicting disease is complicated Fyodor Kondrashov (YouTube)
• Cancer and ageing: looking for the perfect balance Bill Keyes (YouTube)

There is no pre-established schedule for the conferences, and the information is published on this page and the events section of our webpage.
