Madrid Brain Longevity is an interdisciplinary research project. We combine connectomics, metabolomics and microbiomics for studying human brain aging
A different perspective on the brain
|
A mechanistic characterization of human brain aging in the human population may seem out of reach. Brain Big Data analytics open unpaved avenues for new insights of the inner workings of the brain. The integration of all available evidence into a theoretical corpus with both explanatory and predictive power is a promising strategy.
Understanding the human brain as a complex organ that allows adaptive behavioral strategies to cope with an uncertain world, can help get us getting closer to P4 medicine: Predictive, Preventive, Personalized and Participatory. |
Mission
The Madrid Brain Longevity initiative seeks to deepen our understanding of how the human mind works, combining different imaging technologies (MRI, MEG, EEG) with microbiomics and to build explanatory models to improve how we treat and prevent disorders of the brain. We aim at uncovering how exercise and life style decisions influence the microbiome-gut-brain axis.
