🔎¿Comprobáis las referencias antes de citarlas?
📚Una referencia puede tener autores, revista, año, DOI… y no existir.
La #IA ha hecho todavía + importante comprobar las citas antes de incorporarlas.
@NefroGetafe muestra cómo hacerlo con CheckIfExist 👇
@SENefrologia @SOMANEorg
🔔📢🧐 ¿Esa referencia existe de verdad?
Si utilizas IA para buscar bibliografía, compruébala antes de citarla. CheckIfExist ayuda a detectar referencias inexistentes y errores en sus metadatos.

BREAKING NEWS
The 2026 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel “for their discoveries concerning light-gated ion channels and optogenetics.”

La IA nos está mostrando que se puede saber mucho sin comprender nada, que se pueden dar buenos consejos viendo los que se dieron en el pasado y que el lenguaje puede alcanzar bastante complejidad sin una conexión directa con la realidad, o sea, sin pretensión referencial alguna.

Thank you very much, @chadtough, RUN DIPG, Storm the Heavens Fund, and the Violet Foundation for your support of research into DIPG and childhood brain cancer.
We are deeply honored and grateful to @chadtough, RUN DIPG, Storm the Heavens Fund, and the Violet Foundation for awarding our lab the Game Changer Grant! 🔬
This grant is a huge boost for our team at @CIMA_unav, which works tirelessly to defeat DIPG and pediatric brain cancer.✨

I am happy to share our protocol paper for wildDISCO technology, a platform for whole-body immunolabeling, clearing and 3D imaging of intact mice at cellular resolution using standard IgG antibodies. nature.com/articles/s41596-0…
This work presents technical details for wildDISCO (Mai&Luo...Ertürk, Nature Biotechnology, 2023, nature.com/articles/s41587-0…. The protocol enables deep antibody penetration across the entire body, including challenging regions such as bone marrow, spinal cord and deep organ tissues.
With this approach, we can now map neuronal, vascular, lymphatic and immune systems across the whole organism and study disease processes, cancer metastasis, microbiome interactions and systemic biology in unprecedented detail. The workflow also integrates light-sheet imaging, virtual reality visualization and online atlas generation.
Work led by @jieluo692, @HongchengM . We hope this protocol helps many labs worldwide explore biology at true organism-wide scale.

Yesterday’s networking event was a great reminder of how powerful in-person connections can be.
We had the chance to meet incredible professionals, share ideas, and explore new perspectives and opportunities. Conversations like these are what make growth feel real and exciting!

“I think science is the greatest equalising force in the world, because anyone – regardless of their background, regardless of their gender, regardless of their academic standing, regardless of their economic standing in society – can go into a lab and potentially make a discovery, and that discovery can change the world. There is no other discipline, as far as I can tell, where this transformation could happen so quickly. Where a small discovery made by a humble researcher takes you from an unknown into the sky. That’s the power of science. In so doing, you are transforming yourself. You’re transforming, depending on the discovery, the world around you. I think that’s one aspect of science that I really love.”
During our official interview, chemistry laureate Omar Yaghi spoke about his life journey, love of science and discovery as well as what keeps him motivated.
