Show Notes

Dr Amy Shepherd (@amylasenz) is a triple threat - her background in neuroscience, immunology, and working with the gut is being combined for her postdoc to learn about the enteric nervous system, or the brain in your gut (into the unknoooown!!!).

Amy did her PhD at the Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health (@TheFlorey) and is now working in the Rao lab at Boston Children's Hospital (@BostonChildrens).
