Presentation
Neuroscience studies the nervous system, not only at the level of its biological functioning, but also of advancing the understanding of the diseases that affect it. The neuroscience program of IDIBELL studies neurological, neurodegenerative, neurometabolic, and psychiatric diseases. It also investigates the molecular and cellular bases of neurotransmission and brain plasticity.
It is explained by Dr. Francisco Ciruela.
StandUp Science
IDIBELL’s young scientists turn into science YouTubers. Stand-up Science is an initiative that seeks to promote dissemination and improve the researchers’ communication skills. It is promoted by the City Council (Territorial Specialisation and Competitiveness Projects, PECT) together with IDIBELL, and in collaboration with Torre Barrina.
Science sLHam
To commemorate the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, IDIBELL organises a science sLHam, with the support of the Barradas Auditorium (L’Hospitalet City Council).
Quinaciència!
The protagonists of cutting-edge research at IDIBELL, the ICO, the UB and the HUB explain what their life is like as researchers and what their future goals are.
Innovation sessions
We want biomedical research to reach patients. Here we explain how.
Research and Health
Conferences aimed at patients where there is a dialogue with a researcher about a specific disease.
Experiment
1/2 – NEUROSCIENCE. LET’S LEARN ABOUT PARKINSON’S DISEASE
In this video, you’ll understand what Parkinson’s disease is, what neutrotransmitters such as dopamine are, what role they play in Parkinson’s disease, how neurons communicate with each other, how you are able to interpret the world and learn, and how far the current treatments for Parkinson’s disease go.
2/2 – NOW IT’S YOUR TURN TO EXPERIMENT
