- Science
We explore cutting-edge Neuroscience research by interviewing experts a wide variety of fields. We start each segment with a 20 minute introduction where we introduce the topic, and go over some of the fundamentals that you need to understand each researcher's field. We then jump into an interview where we ask each researcher to expand a little on what makes their research so fascinating. Our focus is on the Eberhard Karls University of Tuebingen in Germany, an excellence cluster university with a strong Neuroscience presence, but we interview researchers from around the world. We hope to inspire new passions, ideas, conversations and collaborations.

How to evolve to be electric
Here we are with our second episode. :-)In this month's episode, we got the opportunity to interview an expert in our own field! We were at the weakly electric fish meeting in Gülpe, Germany, where we interviewed Dr. Harold H. Zakon, professor at the University of Texas at Austin. We learned about what drives evolution and how to communicate science. We hope you have as much fun as we did!
