Invisible layers: reading the secret of genes and the earth

Immerse yourself in an afternoon of scientific outreach where biology and archaeology meet to reveal hidden secrets. Through two fascinating talks, we will explore how our environment shapes our health and how modern technology allows us to rediscover the past.

The talks

• Epigenetics: When the environment decides your health with Teresa Linares Pineda (Universidad de Cádiz): Discover how our habits, diet, and environment can “turn on” or “turn off” genes, directly influencing our well-being and disease prevention.
• Drones and LiDAR in the historical landscape of Cádiz with Antonio Pecci (Universidad de Cádiz): Learn about the PHOENIX-UASL project, which uses LiDAR technology and drones to reveal invisible archaeological structures under the vegetation, reconstructing the history of the Phoenician-Punic landscapes in the province of Cádiz.
