The scariest happy hour by the Verstreken lab… who was the real killer? Did the detectives do their job? How did it all end?

[Verstreken Lab @Verstreken_Lab]

We are looking for a new head for our bio-imaging core facility. This facility houses an impressive machine park and is really a splendid opportunity for anyone with a keen interest in pushing the boundaries of imaging and engineering: https://t.co/mjZwH95VUF

I can only loudly amplify this

[European Brain Council @EU_Brain]

''We should listen to initiatives like @EU_Brain #Pledge4Science which ask us to support research on neurodegenerative & psychiatric diseases.

We should record with this scientific community that #animaltesting has saved & will continue to save lives'', says @IzaskunBilbaoB MEP.

[Verstreken Lab @Verstreken_Lab]

@CBD_VIB @KlinglerEsther Looking very much forward
