A multidisciplinary team of astrophysicists, neuroscientists, engineers, and musicians has unveiled a pioneering method to “listen” to the structure of the human brain. Published in Nature Scientific Reports , the study presents the first higher-order sonification applied to structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. This technique involves transforming three-dimensional information about the brain into sound, taking into account the spatial relationships and complex structure of the data. To do this, mathematical tools originally developed to study the large-scale structure of the

The IACTEC building, in the Las Mantecas Science and Technology Park in La Laguna, is hosting the 11th International Astronomy Education Adventure in the Canary Islands (AEACI 2026) this week. This edition forms part of the Erasmus+ Astro-Journeys project, co-funded by the European Union, in which the IAC is participating alongside eight other institutions from France, Portugal, Germany and Greece. The aim of the project is to support the professional development of teachers, enabling them to design interdisciplinary, inclusive and research-based learning experiences, using astronomy as the
