Recuerdo cuando valoré hacer la tesis en el CNIO o cuando conocí a gente del CNIO, y todos me contaron historias muy negativas de como María Blasco trataba a sus trabajadores. Al parecer, esta investigación corroborarían bastante esos testimonios: elpais.com/ciencia/2024...

Very happy with the impact of our work! Already 200 citations this 2024. Let's try to improve for next year, with the help of @ub.edu, @ubneuro.bsky.social and @idibaps.bsky.social.

Dancing microglia!

In September, we lost one of developmental neurobiology's greats. Many thanks to Carlos Villaescusa for summarising the many contributions that Ernest Arenas made over the years - both scientifically and for the research community journals.biologists.com/dev/article/...

Very proud of iGEM-UB team, that returned from Paris iGEM Jamboree with the Gold Medal 🏅 representing @ub.edu and @ubneuro.bsky.social! I couldn't be happier! They deserve it after all that hard work! #Reneurish
