| BrainFacts.org - new website explores the wonders of the brain and mind |
|
 IBRO joins the Canadian Institutes of Health Research; Dana Foundation; NINDS; NIMH; the Foundation for Biomedical Research; and the Wellcome Trust as an inaugural Content Partner in the newly launched www.BrainFacts.org. Initiated by the Society for Neuroscience, the Gatsby Charitable Foundation and the Kavli Foundation, the site will be a major step forward in presenting the brain and neuroscience in an accessible way to the public, organized to reflect the deep interconnections between topics in the field. We can imagine that there will be many ideas and possibilities imagined for the future, including ways to leverage this powerful technology and strategy platform to pursue new activities and partnerships that take advantage of Web-based communications. |

| Regional Short Course/Workshop |
| 12/5/2011
-> 12/8/2011 |
Cordoba, Argentina. "Molecular tools for the study of integrative neurophysiology". Organized by Laura Vivas, one of the goals of the workshop was to expose students and postdoctoral fellows to modern techniques practiced by physiologists in Brazil, Argentina and North America and open the possibility for postdoctoral training in those laboratories. |

| School of Neurobiology, Molecular and Cell Biology |
| 10/31/2011
-> 11/6/2011 |
 Puerto Rico. "Probing normal and pathological neural cell functions". A
fundamental goal of the course organizers was to have the class represent the
interdisciplinary nature and diversity of researchers in the neuronal
biochemistry and cell biology fields. 33 students participated. Several students received invitations from faculty members of the School to visit
research laboratories in the USA and Brazil next summer for additional training.
These students will later return to Puerto Rico and apply these techniques in
their own research projects at their respective institutions. |

| IBRO's 2013 Research Fellows Announced |
|
Three young neuroscience researchers - coming from the Palestinian Territories, Tunisia and Argentina - are the 2013 Research Fellows. This programme aims to foster neuroscience research, especially in less well-funded countries, by providing support to high quality neuroscientists from diverse geographic and scientific areas who wish to broaden the scope of their training in neuroscience by working abroad in high-quality laboratories. |
