Neuroscience and Beyond
We are a team of PhD students located in Göttingen, Germany, who share a passion about neuroscience and science communication. On a monthly basis we talk with experts in neuroscience and discuss their research, career path, struggles along the way and current problems in the field. Supported by the International Max Planck Research School for Neurosciences as well as the Cluster of Excellence "Multiscale Bioimaging" in Göttingen. The content of the podcast represents our personal opinions and is separate from the institutions we are working at. Ideas are our own!

Why are animal experiments inevitable in biomedical research? | Dr. Roman Stilling
Today's episode explores a critical topic: animal experiments in research. We're thrilled to have Dr. Roman Stilling with us. Dr. Stilling completed his Ph.D. at the European Neuroscience Institute in 2013 and went on to explore the fascinating role of gut bacteria in brain development as a postdoc. His passion for science communication led him to join the initiative “Tierversuche verstehen”, which means "Understanding animal experiments". Dr. Stilling is also a member of the FENS CARE committee (see below) and a host of the podcast called ‘Fabeln, Fell und Fakten’, where he discusses on a regular basis the topic of animal experimentation. In this episode, we'll discuss the vital role of animal experimentation in advancing biomedical research. Tune in to learn why animals are essential for breakthroughs in science and medicine.
If you want to meet him in person, he will be attending the upcoming @fens_org conference in Vienna Austria in June 2024.
