La enfermedad metastásica: cada vez más cerca de una cura o de poder evitarla. Nuestros premiados, el Dr. Eduard Batlle, jefe de @BatlleLab en @IRBBarcelona, y el Dr. Óscar Marín, jefe de @MarinLab en @KingsCollegeLon, ambos premiados en ediciones anteriores y actuales miembros del jurado de nuestro Premio a la investigación Biomédica, lo analizan en #ConversacionesConCiencia.

Our study on the impact of altered serotonin (5-HT) signalling on developing sensory cortex is now live @NatureComms We use longitudinal in vivo imaging of 5-HT & neural activity to show that this neuromodulator is buffered in early life to promote bottom-up instruction.

1/12. How do cortical interneurons select specific pyramidal cells during development? Julie Jezequel in @Rico_lab has identified specific cellular and molecular codes that interneurons use to target pyramidal cell types @NatureComms @dev_neuro @MRC_CNDD @KingsIoPPN

🚨Paper Alert🚨 Our paper on the mechanism of homeostatic control in PV interneuron activity is now online in Nature! A massive thanks to all the authors, including @clembrnrd, @FurshamH and @MarinLab. Read the paper at nature.com/articles/s41586-0….
1/10 Our latest research, led by @MartijnSelten, identifies a mechanism through which Parvalbumin (PV) interneurons regulate their activity in the #cortex. This is the story @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0… 🧵⬇︎ @dev_neuro @MRC_CNDD @KingsIoPPN @ERC_Research @RosetreesT

Como opino de muchas películas, también lo hago de "Cajal libremente", el corto cocreado por mi compañero @JLTrejo2 del @InstitutoCajal. Es una forma diferente de presentar a un Cajal cercano, y que se pregunta por grandes dudas que nos afectan a todos: lo recomiendo firmemente
