I work in the Institute of Biomedicine and Biotechnology of Cantabria, a joined venture between the University of Cantabria and the Spanish Research Council, CSIC. I learned about OpenWetWare by other labs also linked to the OWW, and I've joined to have a link to my lab page [Molecular motors in secretion [1]], so I can share my research with the scientific community.
