Per què els humans fem exposicions? Per què ens agrada o no ens agrada una obra d’art? Quan la mirem, veiem tots el mateix? Per què ens fem preguntes?

Els humans ens fem preguntes des de fa 1,5 milions d’anys, quan vam començar a cuinar. Veurem com aquest fet va fer evolucionar els nostres cervells de manera diferent als altres primats, i això ens ha dut a fascinar-nos pel nostre entorn i ens ha portat a qüestionar-nos i a representar artísticament allò que ens envolta o allò que imaginem. Parlarem de la connexió entre la recerca artística i la recerca científica i parlarem del paper de les neurones en aquesta connexió. També parlarem d’alguns personatges que han estat importants per arribar a saber allò que avui en dia sabem sobre els cervells i veurem que queda molt per descobrir. El futur serà millor si entenem millor el cervell? Volem saber-ne més per poder ajudar en casos de discapacitat mental, de malalties degeneratives o en paràlisis degudes a accidents, i també en casos de transtorns mentals com ara depressions, esquizofrènies, trastorns bipolars... que poden ser malalties molt greus que poden acabar amb la pròpia vida degut a un suïcidi, però ens plantegen molts dubtes sobre la percepció de la realitat i sobre la creativitat... Van Gogh, per exemple, hauria creat el mateix si no hagués patit profundes depressions?

Farem un recorregut per l’exposició mirant l’art a través de les neurones.

Descripció:

Les trobades a tot el món per al Dia Internacional de les Dones i les Nenes a la Ciència són ocasions per a la celebració, però, més important, són oportunitats per discutir el progrés de les dones joves en aquest camp per convertir-se en líders.

Una àrea de la ciència ha vist específicament el progrés general a nivell nacional i va reunir una atenció global creixent: la neurociència. Les dones han fet contribucions vitals a un ritme accelerat durant les últimes tres dècades a l'hora d'entendre el comportament, l'emoció, el pensament i el funcionament humans. I sembla que la cultura organitzativa i l'impuls personal en aquest camp són les claus de l'èxit.

"La creixent representació de les dones investigadores en neurociències és una tendència prometedora, però encara hi ha més que es pot fer per promoure la seva retenció en l'entorn de la recerca i el progrés en posicions de lideratge en universitats, centres de recerca i el sector privat".

"Continuar investigant per mitigar els biaixos implícits i crear una cultura organitzativa que s'ocupi de l'equilibri entre el treball i la vida són crucials per avançar a les dones en totes les disciplines científiques"

"Seria un retrocés tal si les dones en neurociència es veurien obligades a abandonar la investigació a causa d'un entorn de treball poc acollidor o la manca d'oportunitats clares per a la promoció professional" Dr. Beninson, Board of Higher Education and Workforce at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.

“La paraula flexibilitat com a mitjà de com pensem en la recerca, l'avanç científic i la paritat de gènere. Encara que s'han realitzat avanços significatius i s'han aconseguit els èxits, no som on volem ser” Dr. Chiaravalloti, director of Neuropsychology and Neuroscience Laboratory and TBI Research at Kessler Foundation, professor in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Rutgers - New Jersey Medical School

Abstract

Neuronal cultures are a unique system. Their reduced size and ease preparation have made them excellent platforms to investigate a broad range of phenomena in living neuronal networks. Neuronal cultures have become a true interdisciplinary lab-on-a-chip system, fascinating the physical and medical community alike: where the physicists see a grand complex system, the physicians see an extraordinary cross-platform to pinpoint a number of molecular and cellular processes. In this talk I will approach neuronal cultures from the viewpoint of a biophysicist. I will first introduce our main experimental and data analysis tools to investigate the richness of neuronal cultures. Next I will expose the potential –and difficulties– of engineered neuronal cultures to tackle open questions in brain research, including integration-segregation balance and resilience to damage. Along the talk I will introduce different ongoing collaborations that use neuronal cultures as platform to model and arrest neurological disorders.

Abstract

Citizenship today is often associated with legal citizenship, and especially with who has it and who doesn’t. Yet citizenship is more than its legal status, essential as that status is. Citizenship involves not only our rights and responsibilities in relation to our government, but our relationships with others, our access to resources, and our status as members of our communities and society. In his lecture, Dr. Michael Rowe will: 1) Address the origins of ‘citizenship and mental health’ in the practice of mental health outreach to people who are homeless in the United States; 2)  Review the definition and principles of citizenship in mental health practice; 3) Describe key practices, research, and findings on ‘citizenship work’ in mental health; and 4) Argue for the relevance of citizenship in relation to mental health and community living for people with mental health challenges in other countries, such as Spain.

Abstract

lopment, neurons migrate, mature, and integrate into the existing network following an intricate set of cues. Similarly, in the adult brain, homeostasis is achieved by responding to cues that regulate a myriad of processes, including adult neurogenesis. Cells respond to all these cues by triggering signaling pathways that, once the information is transduced, must be downregulated. Inappropriate regulation of signaling pathways cause neurons to mismigrate, lose responsiveness to new signals, and/or sustain the original signaling response, causing harm or death to the cell. The E3 Cullin-5 RING ligase (CRL5) is a crucial regulator of neuron migration and cell position in the retina, cortex, and cerebellum, by downregulating the Reelin/Dab1 signaling pathway. However, the role of CRL5 in the developing and adult hippocampus has remained elusive. Our work shows that CRL5 regulates lamination of hippocampal pyramidal neurons and dentate gyrus, mossy fiber innervation, and adult neurogenesis. We demonstrate that CRL5 participates in these events by regulating on at least two different signaling pathways. CRL5 downregulates the Semaphorin-3F signaling pathway to promote mossy fiber axon pruning, establishing proper mossy fiber innervation and opposes the Reelin/Dab1 signaling to control proper adult neurogenesis. Overall, we identified CRL5 as a novel regulator of hippocampal morphogenesis and homeostasis and propose CRL5-regulated signaling pathways involved in these events.

Abstract
The Hoon lab is part of the intramural program of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, USA. The lab has a general interest in determining the molecular and cellular basis for somatosensory stimulation. They have employed molecular and molecular neuroscience genetic techniques to functionally dissect signaling pathways and defined neurons involved in nociception, thermosensation and itch. The seminar will present work from the lab over the last few years on the delineation of key signaling components and cell involved in itch in mice and potential translatable approaches to alleviate chronic itch.

Abstract

Las neuronas de Cajal-Retzius (NCR) son la principal fuente de reelina en la zona marginal de la neocorteza y el hipocampo (HC) durante el desarrollo prenatal, aunque su producción es complementada por las interneuronas GABAergicas-reelina+ de aparición más tardía. La proteína p73 es imprescindible para la formación de las NCR, dado que están completamente ausentes en el ratón KO-p73. El HC dorsal humano se empieza a formar en la semana gestacional (SG) 10, con el desarrollo de una rudimentaria placa Amónica y una incipiente migración del dentado, aunque la fisura del hipocampo (FH) dorsal se mantiene superficial y contiene pocas NCR. El HC dorsal se transforma en el indusium griseum (IG) con la aparición del cuerpo calloso alrededor de las SG14-17. Los HCs dorsal y ventral se unen en el sitio del antiguo hem caudal, localizado a nivel del futuro atrium del ventrículo lateral e íntimamente conectado con los plexos coroideos. El HC ventral se empieza a formar en la SG11 en el lóbulo temporal. La FH ventral es muy ancha y poco profunda en las SG14-16 y densamente poblada por NCR, éstas están en íntimo contacto con las meninges y los vasos sanguíneos meníngeos, sugiriendo posibles vías de comunicación entre estos componentes. En la SG17, se produce una profundización notable de la fisura y comienza a fusionarse, aunque todavía contiene NCR reelina/p73+. El ratón KO-p73 confirma la importancia de p73 en las NCR para la formación de la FH. En este ratón, las NCR Tbr1/reelina+ nacen en el hem pero no migran y posteriormente desaparecen, por lo que la corteza y el HC del ratón KO-p73 carecen de NCR desde el comienzo de la corticogénesis. La FH está ausente, dando lugar a profundas alteraciones arquitectónicas del HC. Para determinar qué isoforma de p73 es importante para la formación de la FH, hemos estudiado los ratones KO para las isoformas TA y DeltaN durante el desarrollo embrionario y postnatal. En ambos ratones mutados observamos pocas NCR, pero estos fenotipos fueron mucho más leves que el del ratón KO-p73 global. En el ratón KO-TAp73, no se forma la fisura en el HC dorsal pero sí en el HC ventral. En el ratón KO-DeltaNp73, la FH es más corta y el patrón del HC está ligeramente defectuoso. Las complejas interacciones entre ambas isoformas en las NCR pueden contribuir a su actividad crucial en el desarrollo del cerebro.

Abstract

Physical activity and exercise can help improve cognition, quality of life and mobility in older adults. This talk will be an overview of more than ten years of intervention studies from our lab supporting the notion that multiple exercise modality, from aerobic endurance training to resistance, gross motor exercise and dance training can lead to several benefits in older adults. Our results suggest that these programs can help enhance cognition, quality of life and boost biomarkers associated with brain plasticity (e.g., BDNF).  Studies with patients also suggest that physical activity and exercise can be used as effective non-pharmaceutical intervention in frail older adults and patients with Parkinson’s disease, mild cognitive impairment at dementia.

Abstract

It has been posited that compromised motivation in HD or “apathy” arises from a deficit in preparing for and initiating goal-directed behavior. Apathy is always the primary deficit in motivation associated with frontal-subcortical diseases such as HD. Indeed, apathy may be a core feature of HD pathology itself. In many cases apathy follows a similar trajectory as motor symptom progression in HD, although it can become prevalent before phenoconversion. It can be the result of several neurobiologically maladaptive systems, including affective (flattening of emotional responsiveness), behavioral (reduced initiation of spontaneous behavior), and executive dysfunction (difficulty planning/executing). Thus, motivational dysfunction in HD is a deficit primarily in preparation for motivated behavior that can have debilitating co-morbid consequences.

Gaps in knowledge

·      Loss of striatal cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptors is a key pathogenic of several neurodegenerative diseases, including HD.

·      Treatment for metabolic syndrome with the CB1 receptor antagonist Rimonabant was halted by the FDA because of loss of motivation and depressive ideation.

·      HD patients tend to smoke marijuana as a way to self-medicate and to prevent feelings of loneliness and helplessness.

·      Loss of goal-directed behavior in HD is specific to the incentive value of the reinforcer.

Treatment with indirect cannabinoid agonists profoundly increases operationally defined indices of motivation in normal animals and reverses apathy via dopaminergic mechanisms in mouse models of HD.

Abstract

Differential diagnoses between Parkinsonian syndromes pose significant challenges for clinicians as clinical manifestations can overlap and there are no gold standard biomarkers.  Multimodal translational approaches from novel molecular makers using positron emission tomography (PET) to the brain connectomics by means of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could help to elucidate the underlying brain mechanisms of parkinsonisms and their clinical prognoses.

Abstract

Understanding speech in noisy backgrounds requires selective attention to a particular speaker. Humans excel at this challenging task, while current speech recognition technology still struggles when background noise is loud. The neural mechanisms by which we process speech remain, however, poorly understood, not least due to the complexity of natural speech. Here we describe recent progress obtained through applying machine-learning to neuroimaging data of humans listening to speech in different types of background noise. In particular, we develop statistical models to relate characteristic features of speech such as pitch, amplitude fluctuations and linguistic surprisal to neural measurements. We find neural correlates of speech processing both at the subcortical level, related to the pitch, as well as at the cortical level, related to amplitude fluctuations and linguistic structures. We also show that some of these measures allow to diagnose disorders of consciousness. Our findings may be applied in smart hearing aids that automatically adjust speech processing to assist a user, as well as in diagnostics of brain disorders.

Abstract

Memory impairment is common in neurological disease and is often associated with hippocampal pathology. Pure hippocampal amnesia is, however, relatively rare and its underlying mechanisms are controversial. I will discuss research from patients with both transient and persistent forms of amnesia, which provide insights into memory impairment more broadly and from whom important clinical lessons can be learned. In particular, I will argue that many neuropsychological tests of memory are neither sensitive nor specific to hippocampal disease. Instead, we should be measuring forgetting over prolonged periods of time. Accelerated long-term forgetting is a novel and highly sensitive cognitive marker of preclinical Alzheimer’s disease.

Abstract

The intestinal mucosal barrier is Transport phenomena in the intestine are highly significant to effective oral drug delivery, nutrient absorption, and interactions between microbes and intestinal tissue. Our in vitro models. Interactions between intestinal lumen contents, including food and microbes, with underlying tissues are currently studied in animal models or simple in vitro culture systems that are limited in their representation of phenomena occurring in the human gut. Thus, we are developing in vitro human gut models that incorporate the microbiome and key cell types (e.g., immune cells) as well as appropriate physical stimuli (e.g., fluid flow). One aspect of permeation through the intestinal membrane, transport through mucus, is being investigated in detail. Results to date highlight the dependence of mucosal permeation on physical and chemical properties of penetrating material (drug, particle, microbe) as well as the significance of intestinal lumen contents in altering the mucus barrier. Our findings suggest that mild stimuli, such as those presented by food, can modulate the intestinal mucosal barrier, for example to impact oral drug delivery or microbial invasion, as occurs in infection and intestinal inflammation

Ens adrecem al públic general i, especialment, a les noves generacions perquè coneguin l’herència humana, científica i artística; el llegat de Santiago Ramón y Cajal.

Busquem despertar la curiositat i la fascinació per la natura i l’experimentació científica.

Securing funding is crucial for researchers in Neurosciences throughout all stages in their career. However, applying for funding can be challenging due to the highly competitive nature of the Neurosciences field and the limited time researchers have on hand to prepare a successful application.

To support its researchers in applying for funding, the UBNeuro collaborates since 2020 with the grant consultancy company Hezelburcht. During the talk she is going to present how UBNeuro and Hezelburcht can support you through the grant application process, an overview of current funding opportunities for Neurosciences on a European level, and lastly tips and tricks for preparing an application and finding partners. Questions are very welcome during and after the session.

Crónica sobre la jornada

La grabación de la sesión esta disponible en este enlace

Quan pensem en "un cervell prodigiós" de seguida ens ve al cap el nom d'Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci o Mozart, sense adonar-nos que el cervell més prodigiós del món el tenim molt més a prop del que imaginàvem: al nounat.

En este webinar informativo se tratarán aspectos prácticos de preparación de propuestas para los proyectos posdoctorales MSCA PF 2023

L’objectiu és donar a conèixer projectes que utilitzen aquesta tecnologia com a eina terapèutica per millorar la salut i l'atenció de diferents col·lectius, i poder compartir coneixement i sinèrgies entre organitzacions sanitàries i de l’àmbit social que hi estan interessades.

Hi haurà presentacions de projectes de l’Hospital Vall d’Hebron, Hospital d’Olot, Suara, Sant Joan de Déu Sociosanitari, IAS Girona o l’Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de Aragón, entre d’altres, així com un espai de demostració de la tecnologia immersiva i un networking amb refrigeri.

We’ll have some short and informal talks, followed by plenty of time for discussion and networking. So grab a drink, meet new people, and share your love for neuroscience with us!

La música té un poder universal per mobilitzar i moure les persones. Està present a totes les cultures i, malgrat adoptar formes molt diverses, genera emocions intenses, records perdurables, moments de gran satisfacció i fins i tot estats alterats de consciència. Aquest poder mobilitzar rau en la seva capacitat d'induir i organitzar l'activitat intrínseca de les neurones a través de les ones i els ritmes cerebrals.

A càrrec de Carles Escera, catedràtic de neurociència cognitiva a la Universitat de Barcelona, i investigador de l'Institut de Neurociències en la mateixa universitat.

The metaverse concept is that of a large-scale social environment based on the convergence of virtual and physical reality. Participants can take part in the metaverse through virtual, augmented or mixed reality. They can carry out everyday activities together, ranging from entertainment through to education, business, politics, health or even legal proceedings. At this time the metaverse is more of an idea than a reality, but a number of nascent systems exist, and all the technological components, including solutions involving AI, are available to bring this idea into existence.

En el marc del Dia Internacional contra la LGBTIQ+fòbia, des del Vicerectorat d'Igualtat, Inclusió i Gènere, la Unitat d'Igualtat, el Grup de Treball LGBTIQ+ de la Comissió d'Igualtat i la Facultat de Belles Arts organitzem l'acte TransUB: conQUEERint estimes, espais i institucions que tindrà lloc el pròxim 16 de maig a partir de les 17:30h a la Facultat de Belles Arts.

Aquest acte persegueix discutir els reptes i necessitats del col·lectiu trans i no-binari de la universitat. En el context d'una societat cisheteropatriarcal que nega la seva existència, és necessari que generem espais on poder fer visibles les seves experiències i vivències. L'acte compta amb múltiples activitats:

• 17:30h. Obertura de l’espai, a càrrec del Grup de treball LGBTIQ+ de la UB
• 18:00h. Presentació de l'informe Percepció de seguretat i visibilització de l'alumnat trans* i no binari a les universitats catalanes: Universitat de Barcelona i Universitat Pompeu Fabra, a càrrec de Gaizkane Apodaka i Eiden Gael Marín Rodríguez (equip investigador)
• 18:30h. Diàleg entre Tània Navarro i Rubén Antón Conversa entre Tània Navarro, activista trans referent en la història del moviment LGBTIQ+ al nostre territori, i Rubén Antón, artista i investigadora.
• 19:00h. Espai de debat En aquest espai podrem discutir envers l'informe presentat, podent detectar així reptes i necessitats que la UB ha de fer front, com també poder visibilitzar experiències i vivències. Dinamització de l'espai a càrrec de Gaizkane Apodaka i Eiden Gael Marín Rodríguez (equip investigador).
• 19:30h. Exposició artística i performàtica Aquest espai està destinat a qualsevol membre de la comunitat universitària, especialment alumnat, que vulgui exposar els seus projectes artístics i/o performances. Si voleu participar, escriviu-nos un correu a igualtat@ub.edu o contacteu-nos per xarxes socials (@igualtatub).
• 20:30h. Espai musicofestiu, dinamitzat per Àlex Marteen

El compromís de tolerància zero de la UB i l’objectiu d’erradicar la violència i conductes masclistes compta amb una eina fonamental de prevenció, atenció i intervenció com és el Protocol de la Universitat de Barcelona per a la prevenció, la detecció i l’actuació contra les situacions d’assetjament sexual o per raó de sexe, identitat de gènere o orientació sexual, i altres conductes masclistes o LGTBIQ+ fòbiques. L’objectiu d’aquest curs és oferir a la comunitat UB (alumnat, PAS i PDI) coneixements sobre els aspectes jurídics associats al protocol vigent a la UB, sobre el seu funcionament i aplicació, així com, sensibilitzar sobre les eines de bona praxi de cura psicològica davant de situacions de violència masclista mitjançant els primers auxilis emocionals.

Dues edicions disponibles:

• 15 i 16 de maig (Alumnat, PAS i PDI)
• 22 i 23 de maig (Alumnat, PAS i PDI)

Objetivos:

• • Conocer qué son los sesgos -como parte de la cognición implícita humana- y cómo son los sesgos de género en la investigación con sus modalidades más frecuentes
  • Ofrecer herramientas para aminorarlos y deseablemente eliminarnos en el trabajo investigador en sí mismo y en las tareas académicas relacionadas (evaluación de proyectos y artículos, selección de personal, trato en los equipos, etc.).

Más información en: https://www.crm.cat/los-sesgos-inconscientes-de-genero-en-la-investigacion/ 

Als tallers del Cajalidades l’alumnat podrà posar en pràctica i veure amb els seus propis ulls alguns dels aspectes destacats del món de Cajal.

• Art i pigments
• El principi de la fotografia
• El món microscòpic

After more than 20 years of experience in using the intraoperative mapping techniques and neurophysiologic intraoperative monitoring for the resection of brain lesions located in supratentorial eloquent areas, we are pleased to offer you a full course which comprises the anatomic and theoretical basis for the implementation of these techniques, some practical sessions (white matter fiber tractography using DTI for intraoperative navigation, fiber dissection and CUSA ultrasonic aspirator usage course both in cadaveric specimens) to finalize with two live broadcast surgeries with the application of the subject taught.

It is mainly a practical course which arises from our department experience. We have designed it in the "how I do it" format, with the participation of the corresponding professionals of all the fields implied in the brain mapping process: from the preoperative planning to the surgery, and even the postoperative follow up. We have enriched the course with our know-how, hoping that this 6th Mapping Course in Bellvitge is useful and enjoyable for all of you, with the plus of the course laying in the marvelous city of Barcelona, which will undoubtedly turn out to be an extra appeal.
