We ask questions to brains,
from neuronal organelles to embodied minds

Biology of Down Syndrome

We work together with the Centro UC Down and Down Syndrome communities to better understand (neuro)biological mechanisms impacted by the trisomy of human chromosome 21.

Embodied Signal Transduction

We study diverse biological signalling mechanisms, from neurotrophic signalling in neurons to psycho-physiology of emotions and cognition, focusing on their spatio-temporal dynamics, topological regulation and emergence of meaning.

Public Neuroscience

We facilitate access to neuroscientific evidence for decision-making in education, public health, economy, policy and experience design. We also use biological models to provide innovative solutions for organisations and systems.

COMMUNITY

Interested in neurotrophins, their receptors or their biological functions in health and disease?

Join the international neurotrophic factors research community! We host a monthly seminar, the NGF Webinar Series, which continues the tradition of the NGF Meetings held over the last 40 years, since the first meeting celebrating Rita Levi-Montalcini in the year she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

We also publish a newsletter, The NEW-rotrophin, where you can find the latest papers, preprints and news about neurotrophic factors.

Join the family!

Follow us on Instagram: @cerebropublico.

We share what we do, our experiments, our participation in seminars and conferences, as well as our science communication initiatives.

We aim to make it an open channel for discussing ideas in integrative neuroscience with a public purpose.

Join us on our journey!
