🚀 Starting the round table: “From Bench to Leadership”. Honest discussions on the challenges and rewards of becoming a junior PI. Huge thanks to our panel for sharing their journeys and advice! 🔥 #AcademicLife #JuniorPI #Mentorship
🧬 Alberto Ortega wraps up the session discussing human modeling of neurological disorders, bridging the gap between lab research and patient relevance through advanced cellular models.

🔥 Gerard Callejo presents on the neurobiology of pain, addressing how the nervous system perceives and processes pain, and mechanisms behind chronic pain disorders.

🗣️ Cristina Baus follows with a deep dive into language, cognition, and bilingualism, exploring how the brain manages multiple languages and the cognitive mechanisms involved.

🔍 Guadalupe Soria opens the session with insights into neuroimaging in experimental animal models, highlighting how imaging techniques deepen our understanding of brain structure and function.

🎙️ Back to science! Second round of research talks chaired by Ana Guerrero—covering neuroimaging, pain neurobiology, language & cognition, and disease modeling. Brilliant work from all presenters! #UBneuro #Neuroscience
🗺️ Team building in full swing: “Isla Maians and the Treasure of Barbaroja”. Problem-solving, collaboration, and a lot of laughs. A neuroscientist’s brain never rests—even in games! 🧠🏴☠️ #TeamBuilding #UBneuro

☕️ Coffee break time—fueling up for more science and some pirate adventures 🏴☠️ next! #Networking #UBneuro

🌟 Africa Flores closes the session with an exciting talk about the role of orexins in health and disease, shedding light on this key neuropeptide system.

🧬 Macia Buades takes the stage to explore the neurobiological mechanisms behind antisocial behavior—a complex intersection between neuroscience and behavior.

🧠 Joanna Sierpowska presents on how neurological conditions alter brain function and connectivity — showing how disruptions impact cognition and behavior.

🔬 Mar Puigdellivol (Microglia Connectivity Lab) dives into how microglial networks contribute to brain health and disease. Fascinating insights on cellular communication in the brain.

🧠 First research session chaired by Yasmina Manso—diving into neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation, brain connectivity, antisocial behavior, and orexin systems. Incredible diversity of topics! 🔬 #Neuroscience #UBneuro
