\t\t\tThe Actiquim project, funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation and coordinated by the lecturer Conxita \u00c0vila from the UB’s Department of Animal Biology, draws on the experience of experts from the Faculty of Biology, the Faculty of Pharmacy (coordinated by the lecturers Am\u00e8lia G\u00f3mez and M. Ant\u00f2nia Ribera), Barcelona Science Park, The Spanish Institute of Oceanography in Gij\u00f3n, the University of Bonn (Germany), the University of Alaska (USA) and the National Research Council, Naples (Italy), in collaboration with PharmaMar and other biotech partners. <\/p>\n

To date, work in this field has formed the basis of several doctoral theses and scientific articles on the discovery of new species in polar ecosystems. In the specific area of pharmacology, seven molecules found in the species Aplidium cyaneum (a benthic tunicate that inhabits Antarctic ecosystems) have exhibited anti-cancer activity in laboratory tests, leading to the registration of a patent under the ownership of PharmaMar. <\/p>\n
