Supervisors: Beatriz Novoa (beatriznovoa@iim.csic.es) || Patricia Pereiro (patriciapereiro@iim.csic.es)
We will try to understand the changes of microbiomes associated to inflammatory processes or to an infection and how we can modulate them. We will work with several models such as cell culture, in vivo model of zebrafish (Danio rerio) and also we will investigate the effect of immunostimulation to the microbiome of commercial fish species to get better resistance against diseases.
We will apply transcriptomic and next generation sequencing approaches to identify the microbiomes and to analyze the immune responses using flow cytometry, confocal imagen and molecular analysis.
Supervisors: Beatriz Novoa (beatriznovoa@iim.csic.es) || Antonio Figueras (antoniofigueras@iim.csic.es)
We will analyze the genomic diversity of putative bioactive peptides from marine bivalves and other sources. Also we will analyze the functions of these molecules as antiviral, antibacterial and antiinflammatory compounds in the model of human cells and also in a complete animal (model of zebrafish larvae).
We will apply transcriptomic and next generation sequencing approaches to identify the AMPs, their regulations after infections and their effects to be applied in biomedicine and veterinary.
