Please help us by spreading the word about AMiNDR to your friends, colleagues, and networks! Another way you can help us reach more researchers is by leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts. It helps us a lot and we thank you in advance for leaving a review! 

Every episode of AMiNDR is the result of a huge team effort. Today's episode was scripted, hosted, and edited by Anusha Kamesh, and reviewed by Naila Kuhlmann and Sarah Louadi. The bibliography was made by Anjana Rajendran and the wordcloud was generated by Sarah Louadi (www.wordart.com).

Big thanks to the sorting team for sorting all the papers published in July into themes for our episodes: Jacques Ferreira, Ellen Koch, Nicole Corso, Kate Van Pelt, Christy Yu, and Dana Clausen. 

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.
