Dr. Evgenia Salta on the surprising link between neurogenesis and neurodegeneration

Behind every discovery in the complex world of the brain, there's a person with a story. Stories of Women in Neuroscience brings those personal narratives to the forefront, moving beyond publications and lab notes to explore the lived experiences of the researchers themselves. Each episode is an in-depth conversation, where neuroscientists share not just the details of their groundbreaking work, but the winding path that led them there. You'll hear about the unexpected hurdles, the moments of serendipity, and the personal passions that fuel a life in science. This podcast, created by Stories of WiN, delves into the human side of a rigorous field, offering a rare look at the determination, creativity, and resilience required to build a career in neuroscience. It’s about the culture of science, the life choices we make, and the societal context that shapes these journeys. Tune in for honest discussions that reveal how diverse perspectives and individual stories are fundamentally driving our understanding of the mind.
