Abstract
As part of our special issue focused on glia, Nature Neuroscience is having conversations with both established leaders in the field and those earlier in their careers to discuss how the field has evolved and where it is heading. Here, we speak with Sonia Mayoral, the Robert J. and Nancy D. Carney Assistant Professor of Neuroscience at Brown University in Providence, RI, USA. We spoke about her work on oligodendrocytes and their interactions with neurons, the importance of exploring glia in brain health and function, and her own academic journey and advice for early-career researchers.
期刊介绍:
Nature Neuroscience, a multidisciplinary journal, publishes papers of the utmost quality and significance across all realms of neuroscience. The editors welcome contributions spanning molecular, cellular, systems, and cognitive neuroscience, along with psychophysics, computational modeling, and nervous system disorders. While no area is off-limits, studies offering fundamental insights into nervous system function receive priority.
The journal offers high visibility to both readers and authors, fostering interdisciplinary communication and accessibility to a broad audience. It maintains high standards of copy editing and production, rigorous peer review, rapid publication, and operates independently from academic societies and other vested interests.
In addition to primary research, Nature Neuroscience features news and views, reviews, editorials, commentaries, perspectives, book reviews, and correspondence, aiming to serve as the voice of the global neuroscience community.
