From the moment you start designing an experiment through your final manuscript, you have decisions to make. This webinar will help you plan and implement your statistical approach, avoid pitfalls, and generate analytics workflows for open, reproducible science. We’ll begin with an exploration of common mistakes and choices for neuroscience experiments, and end with an introduction to the use of programming to generate reproducible results.

Serving as a reviewer is a collaborative way to uphold the rigors of scientific practices while also paying forward the support we all rely on as researchers. But can reviewing also be personally rewarding beyond its value as a service to the community?

Why does federal funding for neuroscience matter—and how does it help you and your family? Get all the details from the experts at the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) and the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) in this free webinar for the public, academics, and clinicians. You’ll learn how federal funding works, what happens during a funding lapse or government shutdown, and what you can do to help keep important research moving.

Federal research funding is essential for advancing science, improving patient care, and sustaining the future of neuroscience and neurology. Yet, the appropriations process that determines this funding can be complex and unpredictable. Meaningful and effective engagement requires strong, coordinated advocacy.

Growing up in a household shaped by instability and domestic challenges, I never imagined neuroscience, or even science, could be a path for me. With little exposure to STEM, the world of research felt distant and out of reach. Yet over time, mentorship, persistence, and curiosity opened doors I didn’t even know existed. Those doors eventually led me to becoming a Goldwater Scholar, one of the most prestigious honors for undergraduate researchers.

In this episode, Dr. Yosif (Joe) Zaki and Dr. Zach Pennington join mentor Dr. Denise Cai to reflect on the journey of building a neuroscience lab from the ground up. Together, they share candid stories about building trust and creating an environment where it’s safe to disagree.

In this Careers in Neuroscience profile, learn about Valéria Marques Figueira Muoio, MD, PhD, a neurosurgeon and professor at University of São Paulo- Brazil. Muoio discusses how she decided to pursue neurosurgery, research, and teaching simultaneously, and the necessary skills for all three career paths. What initially drew you to neuroscience? From a very young age, I was deeply moved by reading a tale called "I, neurosurgeon".
