🎄 Applications are now open for our 23rd Christmas Meeting!
📅 21–22 Dec 2026
📍 Sant Joan d'Alacant, Spain
We're looking for early-career neuroscientists working abroad to share their research, meet our scientists, and discover the @NeuroAlc
📩 [email protected]
Hace unos días finalizaron nuestras charlas divulgativas con motivo de la Semana de la Ciencia, y queremos expresar un enorme agradecimiento a todo el personal investigador que lo ha hecho posible👏
Gracias por inspirar, divulgar y acercar la neurociencia a la sociedad🧠✨
🔥A new study led by @BarcoLab at @NeuroAlc is published on @CellReports 🔝
Researchers show that the enzymes KDM1A & KDM5C act as epigenetic guardians, silencing inappropriate genes to keep neuronal identity.

Hoy el #INResearchProgram-Programa de Investigación ‘Bases genéticas y epigenéticas de la individualidad y el envejecimiento’ ha ofrecido un seminario dedicado al PAS @NeuroAlc con la presentación del Dr. Rafael Alcalá Vida (@BarcoLab) 👏👏
Incredibly happy to share the recent study in which I contributed where we characterized cell-specific epigenetic erosion of developmental genes in HD mouse striatum.
Congrats to Baptiste Brulé, Karine Merienne and all the team for this amazing work!

Don’t miss it! 🚀
Alongside our review, colleague Macarena Herrera shares her experience of researching and living at the beautiful Mediterranean coast, home to @NeuroAlc and @BarcoLab. 🔬☀️🌊
Take a look!

We’re thrilled to see our image on the cover of @TrendsMolecMed!
The image highlights the crucial role of epigenetics in the etiology of ASD.
Many thanks to @IsraelMGuerrero for his collaboration on the design!

Week of learning, reflecting and practice to go into the good path of leadership ✍️✍️
Thanks to @LeadSculpt, @LifeSciLearn and the @NeuroAlc
Severo Ochoa Excellence Program to promote this kind of initiatives
Hoy ha comenzado el curso EMBO Lab Leadership que tendrá lugar en el @NeuroAlc durante tres días. Esta oportunidad permite a investigadores posdoctorales potenciar sus competencias profesionales para una carrera exitosa 💪
Con la colaboración del programa Severo Ochoa - @AgEInves
@JannatulChaity7@NeuroAlc Hi Jannatul. Yes, indeed, international students could apply as well, I'm sorry the advert was just in Spanish. If you are interested you could send your CV, a recommendation letter and a motivation letter to my e-mail ([email protected]) 🙂
📣WE ARE HIRING📣
We are looking for a laboratory technician to work with us in the Laboratory of Transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms of neuronal plasticity based at the @NeuroAlc.

"Invasión Astroterrestre"
Autora: Patricia Torres
Lab: Dr. Angel Barco @BarcoLab
"Cultivo de neuronas hipocampales primarias de ratón. Este cultivo muestra un notable enriquecimiento en astrocitos (teñidos con anti-Gfap). Tomada con un @LeicaMicro SPEII."

"Astro-intrusion"
Author: Patricia Torres
Lab: Dr. Angel Barco @BarcoLab
"Primary hippocampal mouse neuron culture. This culture exhibited a remarkable enrichment in astrocytes (immunostained for Gfap). Taken with a confocal @LeicaMicro SPEII."
‼️ 📣 We have just published our preview of the work from @EricJNestler lab in Neuron studying the role of H3K27me1 in mouse stress resilience to adult social defeat stress and early life stress.

Take a look at our latest book chapter on Engrams!
Angel Barco and @miguelfr92 have collaborated with other renowned researchers to compile the latest advances on engrams. Their chapter focuses on the underlying transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms.
