📰Carta al Director de El País

LA #SENC ha enviado una carta expresando su profundo malestar por la publicación de un artículo este domingo en la sección de Salud/Neurociencias que da relevancia a opiniones sin base científica. (1/3)

#Neurociencia #Rigor

Ayer se celebraron los 25 años del programa Ramon y Cajal que ha permitido a tant@s español@s y extranjer@s de hacer investigacion puntera en España. Marca etapas personales y scientifica importantes en la vida de cada uno de los ~8000 premiad@s. Un honor ser parte de ell@s.

#SENC2025 has endeed, and I am proud of my team that enthusiastically and rigourously shared, presented and discussed the latest lab data with talks and posters. Including nomination for Rita Levi Montalcini award!These girls rock!!! Science made in @hnparaplejicos.bsky.social IDISCAM

We needed a trolley to carry all the new ideas ;)
You girls rock @navarrete-llinas.bsky.social @julimrosa.bsky.social and Lucile Ben Haim! It's always great to meet old friends!

What an amazing #glia #meeting in Marseille.
It was great to have a symposium with @inbalgoshen.bsky.social @julimrosa.bsky.social and Mattias Ollivier.
It was also great to meet good old friend-shining scientists, and make some new too!

Glialovers: pls see our recent review on „Brain stars take the lead during critical periods of early postnatal brain development: relevance of astrocytes in health and mental disorders“ for @molpsychiatry with Eugenia Vivi - hope you enjoy the reading 🙂

First, in rats (PMID: 22654062); then, in primates (PMID: 27830790); and now in humans (again) nature.com/articles/s41...

This is precisely why we need animal research!

Huge congratulations to the authors on this impressive work!

We had amazing speakers covering usage, new tools, and discoveries.

Special thanks to @intlbrainlab.bsky.social.

I'm still overwhelmed by the success of the #Iberian #Glial #Symposium!
The excellent quality of the students and postdoc presentations and nearly 200 participants make us confident of a bright #future for #glial #research!
We could not be prouder!
Thanks, #RedGlial, for the idea and logistics!

Hey folks! I got a tattoo of my beloved PIEZO ion channel on my arm! Now I can show how they activate (flatten) under pressure by flexing—Will add a bit of performance art to my science talks 🧪🧠.
