📢Congratulations @cbulgarelli01 and team for this new paper in @elife: Growth in early infancy drives optimal brain functional connectivity which predicts cognitive flexibility in later childhood doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…
Very excited to announce the @isott2025 program isott2025.com/index.php/prog… You still have time to register and to join us at the Meeting of the International Society of Oxygen to Tissue in Greece.
🔬 Captivating work by Eskandari et al.! They combined broadband CW-NIRS with our 4-wavelength #NIRSBOXQ to accurately quantify cytochrome-c-oxidase. A great example of hybrid #NIRS in action—proud to see #PIONIRS tech powering this innovation! 🚀🧠 pionirs.com/wp/harnessing-…
After popular demand, we have extended the @isott2025 Abstract Submission to 25th of April. You now have more time to work on your abstracts and donot forget to register.
Less than a week is left for the abstract submission of the ISOTT Meeting in Thessaloniki on August 24-28. Submit your abstract and get ready to explore current & future developments & applications in tissue oxygen and metabolic sensing. Submit isott2025.com/index.php/abst… #isott2025
Exciting paid research opportunity! Come and work with us on brain development using EEG in the Jones’ lab next academic year @EmilyDevNeuro @BirkbeckBabylab @DivDevSci @Respect4neurod 🧠〰️👶
Applications are now open for the Shenoy Undergraduate Research Fellowship in Neuroscience (SURFiN) program for the 2025–26 academic year. The SURFiN program aims to spark and sustain interest in neuroscience among undergraduate students who have not had access to research…
