Experts in cutting-edge brain research explore the latest in "neural representation" in the first Nat Conference, organised by the Natural Science Museum of Barcelona and the Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute (IMIM), with the collaboration of the UAB.

Neural representation is a concept that refers to the 'language' used by neurons to communicate with each other and pass on information. The conference will include the participation of some of the top researchers from the field of neuroscience, who have dedicated projects and papers to the concept of neural representation. With different views on this issue, each of them provides valuable knowledge that will generate an interesting debate between speakers and the audience.

The conference, structured into two sessions, one academic and another more informative, will be offered by UAB experts Òscar Vilarroya, research director of the UAB Department of Psychiatry and Legal Medicine and coordinator of the Mental Health Neuroimage Research Group at the IMIM, and Angélique Lebert, post-doc researcher at both centres.
