The Institute of Neurosciences (UBneuro) was created under the premise to gather all research at the University of Barcelona that focused on a common goal: understanding the nervous system as a whole to give response to society challenges. It is a frontrunner in international neuroscience research, being one of the few institutes in the world that investigates the brain at every level.
The study of the pathophysiology of nervous system diseases represents a critical challenge in biomedicine, essential for advancing the development of effective and innovative therapies.
Neurodegenerative diseases are usually linked with aging. thus, nowadays there is an important increase in these disorders with a strong social and economical impact in our society
Psychotic and affective disorders are among the most disabling mental disorders in the world.
Research in this area focuses on the cerebral circuits, networks, processes and computational mechanisms that underpin a plethora of functions, such as perception, attention, memory, language, decision making, emotion and the control of action, to name a few.
