🔬A new study led by @GLB_Lab at @NeuroAlc is now published in #JNeurosci@SfNJournals 🙌
Researchers have discovered that the thalamus actively contributes to visual circuit development by regulating interneuron integration. More info 👇

The ultimate milestone! 🏁 Huge congratulations to Dr. Chrysoula Giasafaki for earning her PhD today under the guidance of Dr. @GuilleLBendito 🎓��
Best of luck in your next adventure, Chrysoula! The lab wishes you all the success in the world! 🌟🥂
FENS is wrapped up, the World Cup is over... and our sights are officially set on Japan! 🏆🇯🇵
Only a few days left to register for #SPONT2026! Don't miss the chance to join the global neurodevelopmental community to discuss spontaneous activity and neural wiring. 🧠⚡️
🚀 The grand finale of an unforgettable week! As #FENS2026 comes to a close today, we want to thank everyone who stopped by to discuss neuroscience. Highly inspiring days that remind us that no lab is an island. Safe travels back home, everyone!

Day 3 at #FENS2026! 🧠🚀 This morning, we are highlighting the next generation of researchers:
📍 Isabel Fuentes Jurado (presenting the work of her 1st PhD year!)
📍 José Ignacio Jordá-Llorens (from @eleyvadiaz team)
Stop by, and talk science with them! 🗺️👋 @FENSorg
🧠 The day is finally here! Don’t miss the Fred Kavli Opening Plenary Lecture by our PI @GuilleLBendito today at 18:00h.
Looking forward to seeing many colleagues in the audience! Come say hi! 👋✨ #FENS2026
🚨 Registration for SPONT 2026 will open very soon! May 15!
4th Meeting on Spontaneous Activity in Brain Development
📍 Atami, Japan | Oct 19–22, 2026
Looking forward to bringing together the developmental neuroscience community for an exciting meeting!
@GuilleLBendito
🧠 @GuilleLBendito lidera un proyecto sobre cómo se organiza la corteza cerebral en áreas sensoriales.
Su equipo @GLB_Lab estudia la interacción entre programas genéticos y la actividad neuronal temprana, con implicaciones para los trastornos del neurodesarrollo.

Lectures by leading international scientists, hands-on sessions, computational training, and lively discussions defined an inspiring and highly interactive week at the #FENSHertie Winter School in Alicante.
Advancing #NeuroOmics, collaboration, and global neuroscience training 👏
🧠🌍 Alicante hosted the @FENSorg-Hertie Winter School on single-cell and spatial omics in brain research, bringing together PhD students and postdocs from around the world for a week of advanced training.
Organised in collaboration with @NeuroAlc 👇
