Who we are
Brain and Beer Barcelona is an association of early career researchers in neuroscience, born to promote scientific diffusion and networking between neuroscientists and interested people. BBB organizes and collaborates with all kind of activities from neuroscientific games, cineforums, outreach talks to bring the science to the society like Pint of Science, to congresses for young neuroscientists and much more. Its members are young neuroscientists who carry out their research studying such disparate subjects such as mitochondria, Parkinson's, optopharmacology, molecular mechanisms of memory, glial cells and rare diseases, among others.
