The research work entitled “Retinoid X receptor promotes hematopoietic stem cell fitness and quiescence
and preserves hematopoietic homeostasis” published in the journal Blood and carried out by the "Nuclear
Receptor Signaling" group led by Dr. Mercedes Ricote, has been highlighted on the cover of the journal.

Once the Covid pandemic has allowed it, Ana Paredes and María Gómez-Serrano (Philipps-Universität Marburg)
celebrated the International Day of Women and Girls in Science (February 11, 2022) with the students of IES El Espinillo (Madrid).
At the meeting they were able to convey to the students the importance of achieving equal opportunities between men and women
in the scientific system and to share with them their professional experience as a source of inspiration and motivation.
Ana Paredes and María Goméz-Serrano (Philipps-Universität Marburg) celebrated the International Day of Women and Girls
in Science (11 February, 2020) with students from IES El Espinillo (Madrid). They enjoyed talking about the different aspects of being
scientists, the currentsituation ofequality in science as well as the key role of the upcoming generations in this matter.
Celebration of the course “Nuclear Receptors and Cancer”
organized by the NURCAMEIN Nuclear Receptor Network of Excellence (Ministry of Research, Science and Universities)
and CIBERONC Network (CIBER, Ministry of Health) held in Madrid, December 3-4, 2019
Defence of the doctoral thesis of Laura Alonso at CNIC on November 29, 2019. Congrats!
We have attended to FEBS Advance Course 2019 “Epigenomics, Nuclear receptors and disease”.
Such a great experience discussing the latest breakthroughs in Transcriptomics along with top scientists in the field. Can´t wait for the next edition!

Participation in EMBO Workshop. Ana Paredes, PhD Research Student, has presented her work
in the EMBO Workshop: “Organ Crosstalk in energy balance and metabolic disease” (Cádiz, Abril 2019).
Ana and her colleagues aims to understand the role of Retinoid X Receptors in the heart
and their implication in the metabolic changes underlying heart failure.
#ConLosImprescindibles. We have participated in the campaign promoted by
Obra Social La Caixa to raise awareness about the importance of Research in Spain.
Marcha MuévetexCNIC. We participated in the 10K march organized by Promega
to obtain funds for the training of research personnel.
