Many of the women, who work at the Principe Felipe Research Centre (CIPF), have wanted to support with this photo the iniciative of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, February 11th. More than half of the staff at CIPF, are women, and in our research team, we are majority!
The PhD students belonging to the Laboratory of Genetics and Genomics of Neuromuscular and Neurodegenerative Disorders have presented their last findings in the national meeting Conbiopreval at the CIPF. This conference is organized by PhD students for mainly, PhD students.
The annual meeting of the Spanish society of neurology (SEN, Sociedad Española de Neurology) has been hold in Valencia (15-19 November, 2016).
