At Inscopix, we take immense pride in the scientific success of our community members. Recently, we had the privilege of interviewing Dr. Anatol Kreitzer (Gladstone Institutes/UCSF) about the tour-de-force study from his lab published in Cell last week. This paper investigated the role of a small population of striatal neurons, the GABAergic Fast-Spiking Interneurons (FSIs),
Meetings such as SfN are an important opportunity for us to connect with members of the Inscopix community at a personal and emotional level. It vividly reminds us that scientific research is ultimately a human endeavor and a team sport, and that we need to support and learn from each other as we push the
