The cartoons published on the Pharmaceuticals Portal have<br />

assembling the puzzles, children will become aware of the risks<br />

involved in taking medications.<br />

“LASSBIO 596: from molecule to medication” mixes fiction<br />

with science to tell the story of a substance developed by<br />

video presents the research stages necessary for the medication<br />

to reach drugstore shelves. At each stage, a different <strong>INCT</strong>-<br />

INOFAR researcher is shown explaining the process.
