2nd and last day of the 8th #ESM Synaptic circuits, brain function, synaptopathies, neuronal-glial interactions... Synapse meeting going strong! Center for Neuroscience and Cell Biology #ESMCoimbra2022

Very proud to have these fantastic researchers as mentors!

NeuroSpark, coordinated by Paulo Aguiar, strives to treat 🧠 diseases through neuromodulation, an ambitious goal that the CaixaResearch Health program is supporting. #i3S #i3Snews #i3Sinnovation #i3Sresearch #peopleofi3S #funding #CaixaResearchFundlaCaixa observador.pt/2022/11/28/neu…

OPPORTUNITIES Applications are open ➡️April 6th: Post-Doc fellowship in the Neuroengineering and Computational Neuroscience Group at #i3S. We're 👀 for PhD in Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Health Sciences or related areas. Full ad 👉 bit.ly/3ltcfJq #i3Sjobs

Happy to contribute to the "Art of Science" graffiti project at #FRM2023 street art + neuroscience is a beautiful combo 😃

Neurons look like trees! We were inspired by Cajal and did some fun analysis! arxiv.org/abs/2307.01499

Our paper made in collab with @Gaudinlab has been published in Lab on a Chip !!! open access : pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… Emma Partiot IRIM IES Université de Montpellier Cantilever microelectrodes for cerebral organoids

Using solely extracellular action potential recordings, researchers provide a noninvasive method for functional imaging of cortical and spinal axons. elifesciences.org/articles/86512…

My autobiography is now published on the The Nobel Prize website. It covers both my personal and professional life, highlighting the decisions and events that have had the biggest impact. I appreciate the opportunity to tell my story. Hope you enjoy reading it nobelprize.org/prizes/medicin…

Axons are amazing. We have reviewed many recent discoveries at the intersection of neurotechnology and neurobiology in the context of axon e-phys and guidance. Paulo de Castro Aguiar Juan Burrone Lab Monica Sousa Finally out in SfN Journals #JNeurosci jneurosci.org/content/44/11/…

Ty Benoît CHARLOT! The pleasure was ours 🙌

Two weeks late, but a heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in the 4th WoN! Especially grateful to our sponsors and speakers for making it possible. Hope to see you all soon! Benoît CHARLOT Estrela @naelnadif Margarida Diogo (X-less) Raquel Rodrigues, Ramiro Almeida

It took more than a DECADE... but finally it’s published!!! It started as a CRAZY idea but after tons of hard work we built it: We hijacked the endogenous secretion systems of Toxoplasma gondii, a brain parasite, to deliver active proteins to neurons 👇 nature.com/articles/s4156…

P-hacking was one of the many pervasive issues in academia that bothered me frequently enough to appear in many of my cartoons. Industry is far from perfect but p-hacking is something I have not thought or worried about in the last 2.5 years. Significant (p<0.05) improvement.

Axon adaptation to tension, out today Current Biology. authors.elsevier.com/a/1jlO93QW8S6G… Kudos to Sara! Thanks MAroso and Paulo de Castro Aguiar for the AxonStretcher, TSilva and pedro brites for membranes, J&CVieira for transcriptomics, and the younger crew i3S-Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde.

Our paper "Spike transmission failures in axons from cortical neurons in vivo" is published in iScience cell.com/iscience/fullt…

We're looking for a candidate with an MSc degree to study human neuronal development using brain-on-a-chip models Neuroengineering and Computational Neuroscience i3S-Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde If you are looking for an opportunity to pursue a PhD in this field, I strongly encourage you to apply!
