TREE OF LIFE
The complexity of life: from the cell to a living organism

Scientists, at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), study the genome and its relationship to common diseases, such as cancer, or genetic diseases, such as rare diseases. The goal is to help find solutions to problems that arise in our human relationship with the environment and with ourselves, that is, finding a cure for diseases or improve the quality of human life.

 EASY SCIENCE CONFERENCE: A COMPUTER IN EVERY LIVING CELL

How do single-cell creatures such as amoebae lead such a sophisticated life? How can they hunt living prey, respond to light, sound and smells and display complex sequences of movements when they lack a nervous system? The answer is that the stuff of living cells performs computations, analogous in many ways to electronic devices but with unique properties.
