We would like to thank our amazing team for all of the work that goes into every episode of AMiNDR. Today's episode was scripted by Joseph Liang, reviewed by Ellen Koch, and edited by Joseph Liang. The bibliography was made by Jacques Ferreira and wordcloud was generated by Sarah Louadi using wordart.com.

Big thanks to the sorting team for sorting all the papers published in May into themes for our episodes: Jacques Ferreira, Elyn Rowe, Ellen Koch, Christy Yu, Nicole Corso, and Naila Kuhlmann. 

Also, props to our management team, which includes Sarah Louadi, Ellen Koch, Naila Kuhlmann, Elyn Rowe, Anusha Kamesh, and Jacques Ferreira, for keeping everything running smoothly.

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.

We are specifically looking for help with sorting abstracts by topic, abstract summaries and hosting, creating bibliographies, and promotions. However, if you are interested in helping in other ways, don't hesitate to apply anyways.
