El País.cat has dedicated an article to the new initiative promoting science at IRB Barcelona called "Meet our Scientists," a series of videos that aims to bring scientists to the public, "using an understandable language without losing scientific rigor, " said El País. The first video stars Roger Gomis, ICREA researcher and leader of the Growth control and cancer metastasis group. In the video, he explains the conceptual and technological revolution that we are experiencing when attempting to understand and treat metastasis.
