The GXB group focuses on three main research areas:
1. Genomics applied to pathogens and diseases
2. Nanomaterials in biomedicine
3. Marine genomics
In the area of Genomics applied to pathogens and diseases, GXB researchers collaborate in different basic and applied research projects around the genetic basis of human diseases, cancer genomics, and viral genomics, using tools from personalized medicine, epidemiology, and evolution.
In the area of Nanomaterials in biomedicine, members of the GXB group work on the obtention of new nanoparticles with potential therapeutical applications in cancer.
In the area of Marine genomics, GXB researchers collaborate on several projects aimed at understanding speciation genomics in marine organisms or in structural genomics and evolution in marine mollusks.
