Our Summer School is currently on its second day! 🚀 We had a great time this morning learning about eye tracking, neuropsychological evaluation, molecular imaging, and animal research. In the afternoon, our participants will get hands-on experience visiting the #CIBIT_UC labs.

Our summer school is already halfway through! 🌟 This morning was dedicated to brain research techniques with #MRI, MR spectroscopy, #fNIRS, #brainstimulation, and #EEG. This afternoon, it’s all about hands-on workshops and exciting lab visits! 🧠 #CIBITSummerSchool24

Day 4 of #CIBIT_UC Summer School was fantastic! 🤯 We explored exciting research projects happening at CIBIT and wrapped up with a lively chat where students and researchers shared stories and insights about their research journeys! ✨ #CIBITSummerSchool24
