Today's episode was scripted and hosted by Alyssa Ash, reviewed by Ellen Koch, and edited by Sanjana Bedi and Anusha Kamesh. All of this was made possible thanks to an entire team of volunteers behind the scenes.  

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.
