PAPER ALERT!📣📣 Low brain glucose? It’s not just neuron starvation. Astrocytes sense, respond, and regulate synapses. GLUT1 in astrocytes is a key player in protecting the brain from metabolic stress. Check out our full study with @cgardanaz.bsky.social www.aginganddisease.org/EN/10.14336/...
Astrocytic Glucose Sensing Drives Synaptic Depression under Metabolic Stress
<p>Glucose is the primary energy source for the brain, and its continuous supply is essential for neuronal function. Astrocytes play a pivotal role in brain energy metabolism by mediating glucose upta...

Desde la SEBBM lamentamos comunicar el fallecimiento de Joan Guinovart, acontecido esta pasada madrugada. Joan fue presidente, era socio de honor y ha sido una figura clave para nuestra sociedad, además de referente de la bioquímica tanto a nivel nacional como internacional.
To the scientific community: What should I do if none of the grants I’ve applied for are successful? Should I keep trying, again and again? It feels like something in my idea or strategy isn’t working. What should I change? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated
