Millennium Nucleus of Neuroepigenetics and Plasticity

Our Mission

We seek to understand how neural networks are established in the brain that make learning processes and memory storage possible

The EpiNeuro Team

To successfully achieve our research goal, we assembled a gender-balanced research team including five Principal Investigators (PIs), four Associate Investigators (AIs) and a Senior Investigator with expertise in i) chromatin & epigenetics, gene transcription and bioinformatics, ii) cellular and molecular (neuro)biology, iii) structural and functional synaptic plasticity (incl. electrophysiology) and iv) cognitive behavioral studies. PIs are from three different Universities and regions (RM, IV, V) of Chile: U. Andrés Bello (UNAB), U. Católica del Norte (UCN), and U. Valparaíso (UV).
