Researchers Pablo Cuesta, Ricardo Bruña, María Eugenia López García, and Danylyna Shpakivska presented the laboratory’s strategic lines, highlighting the value of neuroimaging and computational neuroscience in the hospital setting.
Madrid, November 14 – The Center for Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience (C3N) at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) played a prominent role in the recent “Neuroscience Day for Residents at HCSC”, organized by the Health Research Institute of the Hospital Clínico San Carlos (IdISSC).
The event, designed to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and future medical specialists, served as a platform for the C3N team to demonstrate how basic and computational research integrates into real-world clinical practice.
A Multidisciplinary Team
The C3N delegation comprised researchers Pablo Cuesta, Ricardo Bruña, María Eugenia López García, and Danylyna Shpakivska. During their sessions, they outlined the current work being developed by the laboratory within the IdISSC Neuroscience Group.
Presentations focused on the application of advanced neuroimaging techniques (MEG/EEG) and functional connectivity analysis for the study of neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive disorders. The team emphasized the importance of early biomarkers and how computational models can aid in understanding the pathophysiology of complex neurological conditions.
Successful Turnout and Translational Vocation
The day concluded with great success in terms of attendance and engagement from the medical residents. C3N’s participation in such forums underscores the laboratory’s commitment to translational research: taking findings from the “bench to the bedside.”
The interaction between physicists, psychologists, engineers, and medical residents is fundamental to the IdISSC and UCM ecosystem, fostering future collaborations that advance the diagnosis and treatment of neurological pathologies.
From C3N, we extend our gratitude to IdISSC for organizing this meeting space and to all the residents for their interest in our research lines.
