So proud that this amazing work has finally been published in @NatureNeuro! Congrats to all the team 🎊 @GuilleLBendito @JPLopezAtalaya @lpuche_1 @emily_wilson9
🧠How do thalamic neuron groups form during development?
A study led by @GuilleLBendito & @JPLopezAtalaya at @NeuroAlc reveals how distinct neuronal identities emerge. Now published in @NatureNeuro and selected as a Featured Article! 🔝

Publish and ask a new question.
See the title printed in @NatureNeuro . Feel the pride of a team, an institute (@NeuroAlc @CSIC @UniversidadMH ), and basic science done right. Smile for five minutes. Toast with colleagues.
Then, ask yourself a new question.

Great scientific exchanges today at #SPONT2026 in Atami! 🧠🇯🇵
🎤 Francesco Dori presented his work on early astrocyte-neuron interactions.
📌 Luwei Wang shared her latest data on sensory circuit assembly during the poster session,
Proud to see them!

Decoding how sensory circuits assemble requires precision, patience, and a lot of microscopy hours... but sometimes, the brain reveals itself as true art.
So proud of our team! 👏
We know the winners of the 6th edition of #SciencePhoto_IN! 🥳
Congrats to Francesco Dori @DoriFrancesco, Emily Wilson @emily_wilson9 (@GLB_Lab), and Carlos Avilés Granados (J. Sáez Valero lab)🏆
This contest celebrates the beauty of science through the eyes of @NeuroAlc staff📸

🔬A new study led by @GLB_Lab at @NeuroAlc is now published in #JNeurosci @SfNJournals 🙌
Researchers have discovered that the thalamus actively contributes to visual circuit development by regulating interneuron integration. More info 👇

FENS is wrapped up, the World Cup is over... and our sights are officially set on Japan! 🏆🇯🇵
Only a few days left to register for #SPONT2026! Don't miss the chance to join the global neurodevelopmental community to discuss spontaneous activity and neural wiring. 🧠⚡️

Missed @GuilleLBendito’s Plenary Lecture at #FENS2026? 🧠💡
Watch her FENS TV interview on how genes and spontaneous activity dialogue to shape sensory circuits before birth, challenging traditional views 🧬✨
