Join us for this special episode of Neurotalk, the second in a series about Scholarly Publishing. In this conversation with Katja Brose, Editor-in-Chief of Neuron (recorded February 2016), we discuss peer review, retractions, possible roles for technology in publishing, and more.
(Our first episode on scholarly publishing, an interview with John Sack of Highwire Press, can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/neuwritewest/john-sack) -
Today our guest is Professor Dwight Bergles, a professor in the Solomon H. Snyder Department of Neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University. In this episode we talk about glia and their role in neuronal circuits, following data wherever it takes you, and a dream of swimming with sperm whales.

Today, our guest is David Sulzer, Professor of Neuroscience in the Departments of Psychiatry, Neurology, and Pharmacology at Columbia University Medical Center. In this episode, we will talk about Professor Sulzer’s transition from plant biologist to neuroscientist, how hanging around musicians in New York shaped scientific interests, and how drugs like amphetamine affect synapses in your brain.
-
Our guest is Olaf Sporns, Professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Indiana University in Bloomington and co-director of the Indiana University Network Science Institute . We speak with him about network theory, “rich clubs” in the brain, and jump-starting the “connectomics” movement.
-
In this episode, our guest is Margaret Livingstone, Professor of Neurobiology at Harvard University . We speak with her about monoamines regulating complex lobster behavior, lessons on vision from artists, the joy of solving puzzles for a living.
-
Our guest is Indira Raman, Professor of Neurobiology and Physiology at Northwestern University . We speak with her about AMPAR kinetics in auditory neurons, sodium channels in cerebellar neurons, and how Shakespeare and Science maybe aren’t all that different
-
Today, our guest is Professor Ege Kavalali, the Effie Marie Cain Scholar in Medical Research in the Departments of Neuroscience and Physiology at UT Southwestern Medical Center. In this episode, we will talk about the complexity of the synapse, how basic science can lead to clinical understanding, and the importance of being intellectually well-rounded.
-
Today, our guest is Prof. Paola Arlotta, Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology at Harvard University, and principal Faculty Member at the Harvard Stem Cell Institute. In this episode, we will talk about the wonderful diversity of neurons in the cortex, reprogramming neurons to help treat disease, and the joys of living in both Boston and Italy.
-
In this episode, we will talk with Professor Adam Cohen of Harvard University about taking apart electronics from the street, building a scanning tunneling microscope in your bedroom, and exciting projects using proteins to sense membrane voltage and image neural activity.
-
Today, our guest is Kristin Branson, a Group Leader at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus. We’ll be speaking with her about searching for the right topic to study, tracking animal behavior using machine learning, and thinking about problems globally.
-
In this episode, we interview Professor Eric Nestler, Professor and Chair of Neuroscience at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and Director of the Friedman Brain Institute at Mount Sinai. In this episode, we’ll talk about the molecular basis of basis of addiction, improving animal models of depression, and being a true Yalie.
-
Today, our guest is Okihide Hikosaka, a Senior Researcher and Section Chief at the National Eye Institute, at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. We’ll be speaking with him about the role of speculation and intuition in science, the life histories and personalities of our monkey colleagues, and how short-term versus long-term memories inhabit different parts of the basal ganglia.
-
Today, our guest is Professor Bernardo Sabatini, the Alice and Rodman W. Moorhead III Professor of Neurobiology at Harvard University. In this episode, we will talk about overcoming technological barriers, scientific bloodlines, and when the music industry meets science. All this and more, coming up.
-
Today, our guest is Rick Huganir, Professor and Director of the Department of Neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University . We’ll be speaking with him about his lifelong interest in learning and memory, phosphorylation of ion channels and receptors, and his first ever experiments: color preference of mealworms.
-
Today, our guest is Tomomi Shimogori, Team Leader of the Lab for Molecular Mechanisms of Thalamus Development at RIKEN Brain Science Institute in Japan. We speak with her about cortical development, studying development in marmosets, and growing up around the globe.
-
Today, our guest is Prof. Robert Edwards, the Cahill Professor of Neurology and Physiology at UCSF. In this episode, we will talk about uptake of neurotransmitter into vesicles for release at the synapse, co-release of dopamine and glutamate, and how a young soul happily found his way to science.
-
Today, our guest is Dr. Tianyi Mao, Assistant Scientist and Principal Investigator at the Vollum Institute. We’ll talk about dissecting thalamo-cortical circuits in a systematic way; using sCRACM to understand how circuits are wired; how this approach and these maps could help us understand cortico-striatal-thalamic loops; and, how Dr. Mao’s got to where she is today.
-
Our guest is in this episode is Takaki Komiyama, a professor at the University of California, San Diego in the Department of Neurosciences and in the Neurobiology Section of the Center for Neural Circuits and Behavior.
The following episode was recorded in October, 2014, but never broadcast; we wanted to bring this back from our archives and present it to you now, because it’s a great interview!
In this interview, we talk about the anatomy of the sense of smell, baseball, and neural ensembles in motor cortex during learning. Please enjoy! -
Today, our guest is Nils Brose, Professor and Director of the Dept. of Molecular Biology at the Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine in Göttingen, Germany. We speak with him about the mechanisms of neurotransmitter release, how synapses might be built, and the role of the luck in the career of a scientist.
