Potential gut microbiota-associated biomarkers in Wilson Disease
The gut microbiota (GM) makes an axis with various extraintestinal organs, including the liver or brain. This interconnection is regulated by an intricate metabolic, endocrine, and immune host-microbe crosstalk. In this seminar, we will discuss preliminary findings related to the characterization of intestinal microbiota associated with Wilson’s disease, a rare disease characterized by toxic copper accumulation that affects the liver and nervous system. Our main aim is to identify potential bacterial biomarkers that could provide insight into the etiopathogenic mechanisms of the disease and facilitate the development of novel diagnostic and treatment strategies
12:30 – 13:00 Jesús Alejandro Alzate
Integrating AI and Data Science in Medical Imaging: A Prostate Cancer Application
In the evolving healthcare sector, the fusion of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science with medical imaging is introducing a new era of diagnostic precision. In this seminar, we will present the collaborative efforts of the Joint Biomedical Imaging Unit (Unidad Mixta de Imagén Biomédica) in applying these techniques to medical imaging, focusing on a global problematic such as prostate cancer detection.

Abstract: The transition from geochemistry to biochemistry took place on Earth some 4 billion years ago. How did the chemistry of the early planet organise itself into systems capable of obtaining matter and energy from the environment and making more copies of themselves? And how did these simple biological systems unfold to generate so much biodiversity? The difficulties of scientific study of the origin of life are enormous, since we do not know most of the details of what the planet was like at that time, and there are hardly any remains of the most primitive cells. The classic proposals of Oparin and Haldane, a century ago, put speculation to rest and opened the way for empirical studies. From the pioneering experiments of Miller and Oró to the most recent approaches of systems chemistry, a long road has been travelled that allows us to recreate today in the laboratory many processes analogous to those that could have occurred during the chemical origin of life on Earth. Admittedly, as in all research of a historical nature, we will never know exactly how chemistry came to life, but this does not prevent us from taking on one of the most colossal and exciting scientific challenges, an unfinished and never-ending scientific programme.
Juli Peretó is professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (University of Valencia) and full member of the Institut d’Estudis Catalans. He was co-director-founder of the Institute for Integrative Systems Biology (I2SysBio, a joint University of Valencia-CSIC centre) of which he is a member of the Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology group. His research interests include the evolution of metabolism, the concept of the minimal cell, the bioprospecting of inhospitable habitats and the history of ideas about the natural origin and artificial synthesis of life. He tries to teach metabolism with an evolutionary flair to biologists, biochemists and biotechnologists. He was Secretary and Vice-President of the International Society for the Study of the Origin of Life (ISSOL), of which he was elected Fellow in 2014. He is co-founder of the company Darwin Bioprospecting Excellence SL, a spin-off of the University of Valencia installed in its Science Park. Some of his recent books are “Synthetic Biology: from iGEM to the artificial cell” (Springer, 2014), co-authored with M. Porcar, “Science at the table”, a collection of articles on scientific gastronomy by F. Sapiña (Monografies Mètode, 2019), “Illuminating human evolution, 150 years after Darwin”, co-edited with J. Bertranpetit (Springer 2022), and “Un planeta creatiu: com va començar la vida a la Terra i com la fabricarem al laboratori” (Institució Alfons el Magnànim, 2023).
