It has been our real pleasure to host Kamela Cenka at CAPLAB. We enjoyed her smile, curiosity and trust in mirror neurons, neuroplasticity and DMN ;-) We hope that our paths will soon cross again. Meanwhile, we wish Kamela all the best for what comes next, including a PhD defence in 2026 in Bologna!
