They are generated on a daily basis and are commonly distributed in different virtual groups on the web. They are a type of image that has a great potential to describe and explain a phenomenon, fact or cultural development, especially among young people. They generate positions and approaches to social issues and problems, while they can be deliberately used by social groups and political forces to promote or question a certain ideology. For all these reasons, its incorporation as a resource and educational strategy is recommended. This paper presents an educational experience in the training of Biology teachers that incorporated Internet memes, in an interdisciplinary work with Visual Communication teachers. Based on seven memes alluding to Biology topics, a survey was conducted to collect data on the emotional impact of the images and on previous knowledge of Biology and Visual Communication associated with their analysis. The results show that the memes generated a positive emotional impact and that the teachers in training were able to associate -in a general way- each meme to biological topics. On this basis, joint instances were then developed between the two teachers to deepen the analysis of the selected memes in biological, visual-communicational, and didactic aspects. Los memes de Internet son parte habitual de la cotidianidad en los tiempos actuales. Se generan a diario y se distribuyen habitualmente en los diferentes grupos virtuales de la web. Son un tipo de imagen que tienen gran poder de descripción y explicación de un fenómeno, hecho o desarrollo cultural; especialmente entre los jóvenes. Generan posturas y enfoques sobre temas y problemas sociales, al tiempo que pueden ser deliberadamente usados por grupos sociales y fuerzas políticas para promover o desafiar una determinada ideología. Por todo esto, su incorporación como recurso y estrategia educativa es recomendable. El escrito presenta una experiencia educativa en la formación de profesores de Biología que incorporó memes de Internet, en un trabajo interdisciplinario con el profesorado de Comunicación Visual. Se utilizaron 7 memes alusivos a temas de Biología colocados en una encuesta, para recabar datos sobre el impacto emocional de las imágenes y sobre conocimientos previos de Biología y Comunicación Visual, asociados a su análisis. Los resultados muestran que los memes generaron un impacto emocional positivo y que los profesores en formación pudieron asociar -de manera general- cada meme a temas biológicos. A partir de esto, se desarrollaron luego instancias conjuntas entre los dos profesorados para profundizar el análisis de los memes seleccionados en aspectos biológicos, visuales-comunicacionales, y didácticos.
