Today's episode was scripted and hosted by Naila Kuhlmann, reviewed by Judy Cheng, and edited by Alexandra Pavel. Big thanks to Elyn Rowe and Jacques Ferreira for sorting all the papers published in September into themes for our episodes, and props to the team that works very hard behind the scenes to make all this possible.
Our music is from "Journey of a Neurotransmitter" by musician and fellow neuroscientist Anusha Kamesh; you can find the original piece and her other music on soundcloud under Anusha Kamesh or on her YouTube channel, AKMusic.
