Happy to share our Perspective on #microglia #pruning and help to answer the questions of whether they are hunters or gatherers of brain #synapses nature.com/articles/s4159…

Bilbao, la nuit

The discussion is worth reading word by word and it will definitely affect how I do science outreach in the future . Kudos to Steven Sloman and colls. @BrownCoPsy 🧠🥂💪

"If policymakers and science communicators can convince influential thought leaders from political, religious, or cultural groups with whom people holding anti-consensus beliefs identify, then these thought leaders may be able to alter their followers’ views."

Looking for a topic to discuss during the Christmas dinner? scientofic evidence in favour of the Dunning- Kruger effect. In Spanish we call them "cuñaos" - relatives who always know more than anybody else about every possible topic

In collaboration with @norabv139 and @BBioH3

We discuss limitations of current protocols (including statistical analysis!) and provide recommendations on validating the immunicompetence of microglia in the brain organoids.

Our recent review on #microglia containing brain #organoids is getting a good reception!. Please reach us if you want to discuss the topic onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Finally the lab got together! Wildfires, cocroaches, dislocated shoulders, chopped fingers... Nothing can beat us! Izaskun, Joel, Xabi, Marco and me at #SENC meeting in Las Palmas @marcogonzalez

@LMPrida @InstitutoCajal @CNC_CSIC @CINCnews @MoratallasLab @JuanLerma1 @CSIC Enhorabuena Lisset, vas a ser una directora magnífica!

Proud to take on this challenge: building the new @InstitutoCajal @CNC_CSIC @CINCnews into a space where neuroscience crosses boundaries and transforms how we understand the 🧠!! Honored to take the lead after @MoratallasLab and @JuanLerma1 @CSIC

🧠Funded PhD position in neddylation in glia!

@AliceLouail @fens Hahaha! Merci!

@SierraLabAch @fens Yeay, congratulations Amanda! The amazing effect of a p<0.05 on a scientist mood ☀️ and... Joyeux anniversaire! 🥳

Two new collaborations with fantastic colleagues A Symposium accepted at @FENS 2026 A P value<0.05 in the final experiment that allows me to wrap up a delayed paper What else could a scientist wish for her birthday?

@TepavcevicVanja @fens Gracias querida

@SierraLabAch @fens Enhorabuena, Amanda y feliz cumple, que disfrutes!!! 😘😘😘

@JustinPerryPhD @fens Yes yes I know, it is just a short way of putting it

@SierraLabAch @fens Hmm, not to have to rely on p values to prove the worth of something? 🤔
