The Pasqual Maragall Foundation and the BBRC collaborate in this year's edition of STEAMConf Barcelona

The ninth edition of STEAMConf Barcelona, the international learning conference based on the STEAM methodology, took place from April 18 to 20 around the “Parc de la Ciutadella” (Citadel Park), as part of the "Citadel of Knowledge". The Pasqual Maragall Foundation has been one of the main partners of the conference and also one of the event's headquarters.

During the three days that the meeting lasted, the Foundation hosted several activities aimed at teacher training. Among these is the visit-workshop led by Nina Gramunt, neuropsychologist expert in training and dissemination of the Pasqual Maragall Foundation and Anna Soteras, Head of the Office of Clinical Operations and Project Management, Aitana Plaza, nurse, and Alba Cañas, neuropsychologist, all three experts at the Barcelonaβeta Brain Research Center (BBRC).

Under the title "Know how clinical research works with BBRC participants", questions such as how the circuit of participants works, what cognitive tests are or what the role of nursing and neuropsychology staff are, were discussed.

The organizers of the 2024 edition of STEAMConf Barcelona wanted to deepen the interaction and experience between educational centers and cutting-edge science and technology, bringing the classroom closer to the real world and looking for solutions to tangible challenges.
