The research was co-authored by UAG School of Medicine students Shelsie Olivo Torres and Alondra Canals, alongside collaborators from Hospital Civil de Guadalajara Fray Antonio Alcalde, Centro Médico Nacional de Occidente, and Universidad Juárez Autónoma de Tabasco, a collaboration that reflects the depth of clinical partnerships woven into UAG's research training.
Following the Forum, Dr. Álvarez remained in Barcelona to begin new collaborative work with colleagues at Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, laying the groundwork for projects that will feed directly into UAG's ongoing neurology research.
Milestones like this one place UAG's Neuroscience area within the international conversation shaping modern brain science, and they reflect the caliber of training, mentorship, and research opportunity available to students throughout their time at UAG School of Medicine. For prospective students considering a path in neuroscience or neurology, moments like these are a marker of what a UAG education is built to produce: not just clinicians, but contributors to the field itself.
