El IDIBELL lamenta la p\u00e9rdida del neurocient\u00edfico Ernest Arenas, director del Laboratorio de Neurobiolog\u00eda Molecular en el Instituto Karolinska de Estocolmo, Suecia, y miembro del Comit\u00e9 Cient\u00edfico Externo del IDIBELL. Nacido en Lleida en 1962, Arenas estudi\u00f3 Medicina y Cirug\u00eda en la Universitat de Lleida y complet\u00f3 su tesis doctoral en la Universitat de Barcelona bajo la direcci\u00f3n de Jordi Alberch. Durante su etapa predoctoral, destac\u00f3 por su capacidad de trabajo y su esp\u00edritu cr\u00edtico, innovador y creativo. Uno de sus art\u00edculos m\u00e1s relevantes, publicado en 1991 en la revista Journal of Neuroscience<\/em>, fue uno de los primeros trabajos realizados por un grupo exclusivamente espa\u00f1ol en un momento en que la neurociencia no era muy competitiva en el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n

En 1991, Arenas se traslad\u00f3 al Instituto Karolinska de Estocolmo para realizar una estancia postdoctoral con Hakan Persson, donde estudi\u00f3 la funci\u00f3n de las neurotrofinas en el sistema nervioso central, un campo emergente y extremadamente competitivo. Consigui\u00f3 una plaza de profesor en el Karolinska en 1994 y, desde 2002, fue catedr\u00e1tico de Neurobiolog\u00eda de C\u00e9lulas Madre, adem\u00e1s de dirigir el laboratorio de Neurobiolog\u00eda Molecular.<\/p>\n

Sus contribuciones cient\u00edficas han sido fundamentales en la comprensi\u00f3n de la enfermedad de Parkinson, tanto en el desarrollo y regeneraci\u00f3n de las neuronas dopamin\u00e9rgicas como en la diferenciaci\u00f3n de c\u00e9lulas madre para posibles terapias regenerativas. Sus resultados han sido publicados en revistas de prestigio como Science<\/em> y Nature<\/em>, y ha recibido numerosos premios y reconocimientos a nivel nacional e internacional.<\/p>\n

A pesar de realizar mayoritariamente su carrera fuera de Catalu\u00f1a, Arenas siempre mantuvo una fuerte vinculaci\u00f3n con la ciencia de su pa\u00eds natal. Con un esp\u00edritu cr\u00edtico y constructivo, particip\u00f3 como asesor externo en \u00f3rganos de gobierno de diferentes instituciones, como el IDIBELL y el IRBLleida, donde aport\u00f3 el valor de sus ideas.<\/p>\n
