A new edition of the Official Master's in Neuroscience has started this week. Welcome to the new students!
Next September 23rd some of the students of the Neurosciences Official Master will present their final master thesis. It will take place from 8:30am at C5/125, C1/009 and C5/131 rooms, in the Biosciences building.
The research group coordinated by Dr. Albert Quintana has received a grant within the 2020 Health Research Call of La Caixa Foundation. The project will focus on reversing the alterations observed in basal ganglia neurons in mitochondrial disease.
