🔬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 👇

🧠 @GuilleLBendito lidera un proyecto sobre cómo se organiza la corteza cerebral en áreas sensoriales.
Su equipo @GLB_Lab estudia la interacción entre programas genéticos y la actividad neuronal temprana, con implicaciones para los trastornos del neurodesarrollo.
