Soon the annual meeting for the Society for Neuroscience starts where 20,000 attendees will be talking all about their work on the brain. This is a sneak peek of that meeting. It's with Dr. John Morrison from the University of California at Davis and Dr. Emilie Marcus from UCLA, who is also the incoming SfN Chair of the public education and communication committee of the Society for Neuroscience. Helping me ask questions are also Dr. Shari Wiseman, chief editor of Nature Neuroscience, Dr. Elisa Floridiaa from Nature Communications and Tanya Lewis from Scientific American.
