Heading to #ECCN2025 in London?
Don’t miss our symposium “New insights into premature infant EEG” on Wed Sept 10, 14:00–15:30
I’ll speak on how early cortical activity networks link to neurodevelopment. See you there!

Last week we attended the #ECCN2025 meeting in Alacant. It was an impressive succession of mind-blowing talks—exhilarating and exhausting. You couldn’t let your guard down for a second!
Here are Paula Mayo and Josema Ruiz presenting their posters.

How can the brain make new connectivity pathways when traditional ones are disrupted? Fantastic talk by @laurarosefenlon.bsky.social showing us how Marsupials reveal the evolutionary diversity of neocortical development. @rsuarezsaa.bsky.social

Have you seen Cat shark embryo before? 🤯
It was great meeting @idoiaeu.bsky.social at #ECCN2025 this week and learning about her research!
Dr. 🐙, I vote for Tenerife. After attending the #ECCN2025 last week, I am coming to the market this morning with a different perspective
Pavel Němec taking us on a ride through an impressive number of species across the avian and fish kingdoms in his talk on the evolution of brain neuron numbers in jawed vertebrates. With amazing @kkverkova.bsky.social #ECCN2025 @borrell-lab.bsky.social @r3rt0.bsky.social @zoltan-molnar.bsky.social
Auguste von Bayern taking us on a journey to the world of songbirds and the amazing Dynamic Evolution of vocal and motor imitation in parrots.

#ECCN2025 was a key meeting point for researchers working with a wide range of animal models, from invertebrates to vertebrates.
Plenary talks, flash sessions, posters, and networking events fostered discussion and exchange on the latest findings in comparative neuroscience 🧠🧬
@csic.es @umh.es
Over 100 scientists gathered in Alicante for #ECCN2025 to explore how nervous systems evolve across species. The 11th European Conference on Comparative #Neurobiology featured cutting-edge research from around the world 👇

Thank you Eve for such fascinating talk on 🐙 biology at #ECCN2025
Some TIBBE members got to meet at the #ECCN2025 in Alicante! @r3rt0.bsky.social @k4tj4.bsky.social @ornellabertrand.bsky.social @carmenfalcone.bsky.social and Kristina Kverkova who got an award for best poster! 🎉

@borrell-lab.bsky.social @r3rt0.bsky.social @zoltan-molnar.bsky.social
It’s a wrap for #ECCN2025, many new ideas, collaborations, but -above all- new interesting people to hopefully meet at other meetings in the future!!!
Grateful to be part of this community!

It has been an absolute pleasure for our lab to attend #ECCN2025 for the first time this year.
We had meaningful discussions and learned a lot from a vibrant community tackling tough questions on brain evolution and development! Super excited for what lies ahead!
Many thanks to @borrell-lab.bsky.social @k4tj4.bsky.social @r3rt0.bsky.social for organising #ECCN2025 and bringing together such a variety of research and species! I truly enjoyed the experience! Stay tuned for the next edition #ECCN2028 in Leuven! (Or Tenerife, still have to decide hehe)
@k4tj4.bsky.social’s talk left me speechless: a great study on how mechanical forces can shape the evolution of brain morphology (70 primate species,impressive computational models and validation from development!). 👏👏👏
Also, so glad to finally meet Katja in person!
#ECCN2025
@houartlab.bsky.social first time at the comparative neuro conference. Fantastic #ECCN2025 meeting! The mix of ‘old’ and new technologies brings the field a new edge and the potential for new understanding of brain evolutionary mechanisms. Exciting!
Brought a bit of #glia to this great evolutionary meeting.
It was fun to be part of this session, together with Bradley Colquitt and Auguste von Bayern, chaired by the amazing @k4tj4.bsky.social 🤩
Thanks @borrell-lab.bsky.social and the other organizers for the invitation!
