Therefore, we are the first Aragonese team! Do not read a book from its cover though. We are doing our best and acquiring great skills while carrying out our project. Our project It consist on designing nanobodies in vitro mimicking natural mechanisms. This way, instead of animal testing, we work with E. coli, which makes this project sustainable and cruelty free. Besides, nanobodies are widely used for many applications such as research, diagnosis, therapy or molecules detection since they can be elicited against all possible targets.
