How does your brain store memories? 🧠 In our latest web article, based on an interview with Dr. Sadegh Nabavi, we break down his key findings, from synaptic plasticity in cells to linking events across time. Full article 👉 www.achucarro.org/ne... #Achucarro #Neuroscience #BrainResearch

📢 Abstract submission for #CorticalEvolution2026 open until April 2nd! We’ll be selecting many short talks from submitted abstracts 🗣️ and we’ve set aside extra time for poster discussions🧠💬 A great chance to share your work and connect with the community — don’t miss it!

Last Friday we hosted Jens Christian Schwamborn (LCSB, Luxembourg) at Achucarro for a seminar on patient-specific in vitro models of neurodegeneration with brain organoids and assembloids. Thank you for sharing your research 👏. #AchucarroSeminars #Neuroscience #Neurodegeneration #BrainResearch

🧠 It is Brain Awareness Week! 🌟 Throughout this week, we will be sharing with you the winners of #BAW2026 grants, along with related articles from the European Journal of Neuroscience (#EJN) published in recent years. Day 3️⃣ : How to make neuroscience accessible!

Lab of Cells and Behavior: we study the role of neuroglia on cognitive and emotional pathophysiology. How? CB1 receptor, behavioral analysis, in vivo ephys (tetrodes), and calcium imaging (fiber photometry and miniscopes) coupled to cellular modulation (optogenetics and DREADDs).

On Wednesday, we welcomed students from Colegio Jesuitas Indautxu (Bilbao) to Achucarro. They explored our labs, learned about neuroscience and met our researchers 🧠. It was a pleasure to share our passion for the brain and inspire future scientists 👏. #Achucarro #NeuroscienceEducation

Prof. Bo Peng’s work is truly inspiring. His research on microglia replacement shows how fundamental neuroimmunology can be translated into real clinical impact. I listened to the seminar on my way to the clinic this morning and was very glad to be introduced to his work.👏🏻 youtu.be/wt4JkX3fNKg?...
