Remedios Caro Almela Chair#

In 2000, in collaboration with the “Instituto de Neurociencias” the Martínez-Caro family started to sponsor the “Remedios Caro Almela” Developmental Neurobiology Chair. Professor Remedios Caro Almela was born in Murcia, on May of 1937 and she died sixty years later in Alicante, after a long and painful disease. She graduated in Philosophy at the University of Murcia, majoring in Art History. The funding that the Martínez-Caro family provides to this Chair seeks to keep alive the memory of their beloved mother and wife Professor Remedios Caro Almela. This Chair is currently represented by Prof Constantino Sotelo.

The Chair also participates to the teaching of doctorate students and to their formation. Its main research interest concerns the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in the cerebellar system development (cerebellum and precerebellar neurons), particularly the processes of neuronal migration, axon guidance and synaptogenesis. In collaboration with the Experimental Embryology group directed by Prof. Salvador Martínez, the Chair also participates to the ongoing projects searching for new mechanisms in neurodegeneration, and to the development of advanced therapies.

Since 2006, the Remedios Caro Almela Chair sponsors an international prize in Developmental Neurobiology. This has been so far awarded to Barry Dickson (2006) , François Guillemot (2007) and Rüdiger Klein (2008).
