In this episode, we speak with neuroscientist Dr Nour Al-muhtasib, postdoctoral fellow at Yale University, for Brain Awareness Week 2021. We talk about the nuances of being a first-generation graduate student, the electrophysiological research that she’s about to begin in her new lab, and what it was like starting a postdoc just as the COVID pandemic began. Stay tuned until the very end of our conversation when Dr Al-muhtasib shares some of her favourite facts about the brain.
