The Centre for Neuroendocrinology (CNE)
@cneotago.bsky.social
The Centre for Neuroendocrinology (CNE) at the University of Otago presently comprises 15 collaborative research groups researching how the brain and endocrine system interact to regulate brain and body health.
Recently, high school students joined us at the CNE as part of the Brain Bee 2025 programme.
Students got hands on experience using research techniques that we employ in our daily research
Thank you to BrainSTEM Otago and the Neurological Foundation for supporting this day!
