Partnership

Astrocyte Cafe is a monthly seminar series focused on astrocyte research organized by Dr. Nilhan Gunhanlar and Dr. Carmen Falcone, started in 2022. These meetings aim to share research projects and discuss potential outcomes and troubleshooting in an informal environment. The talks are all focused on astrocyte research, and cover topics that span from molecular biology, physiology, anatomy, bioinformatics, behavior, and brain disease. We support Open Science. We are a fast-growing community. At the moment, we are about 900 members from all around the world and from different career stages, students, postdocs, principal investigators and professors. Astrocyte Cafe particularly support members of underrepresented minorities to join and present at our meetings!

The first in-person Astrocyte Cafe event, will be a 3-day conference, focused on astrocyte research. The conference will include oral and poster presentations, keynote lectures, a “Meet the expert” roundtable, informal discussions, mentoring opportunities, and sponsors’ exhibits.
