Brain structure determines individual differences regarding music sensitivity

The white matter structure in the brain reflects music sensitivity, according to a study by the research group on Cognition and Brain Plasticity of the Institute of Neurosciences of the University of Barcelona (UB) and the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (UB-IDIBELL). The study, published in Journal of Neuroscience, shows that white matter connectivity, the tissue

Researchers identify an amino acid transporter as responsible for the onset of congenital cataracts

The ‘human molecular genetics’ research group of the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute, led by Dr. Virginia Nunes (IDIBELL – UB – CIBERER), has participated in a research study demonstrating that the amino acid transporter LAT2 causes congenital cataracts in both animals and humans.   This study, published in Frontiers in Physiology, has discovered that LAT2 ablation causes
