Sneak-peek of SfN 2022

Annually, 20,000 - 25,000 researchers in neuroscience, both basic researchers and clinicians, come together at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. It's big. Actually gigantic. Here's a sneak-peek of some of the aspects that will be talked about at the meeting. This is a chat with the Society for Neuroscience leadership. And there's a nerdy word-game, too.
Recently, we had the chance to get a sneak-peek of the meeting with the Society for Neuroscience's current leadership and to play a nerdy game with them. They are: Dr. Gina Turrigiano, Brandeis University researcher and current President of the Society for Neuroscience,  Dr. Robbie Greene of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, current chair of SfN’s Public Education and Communication Committee and Dr. Damien Fair from the University of Minnesota, incoming chair of SfN’s Public Education and Communication Committee. If you want to register for the meeting, you can do so here: https://www.sfn.org/meetings/neuroscience-2022/registration .

And we played a nerdy game with them. It's 'we' because this podcast episode is co-hosted by Dr. Jean Zarate, senior editor at Nature Neuroscience, who is also a musician and an actor. This podcast series expands on the things I hear and read and offers conversations with people I meet in the course of my science journalism adventures.
