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!

Rethinking Academia: What’s Broken and How We Can Fix It | #4 with Dr. Mani
Professor Mani shares her perspective, acknowledging both the privileges of scientific research and the real challenges we face. We discuss the slow peer-review process, the high cost of open access, and the systemic resistance to change.
While specific challenges vary across research fields, we can collectively improve the system through awareness and sustained action. What's your biggest challenge? Share your thoughts in the comments!
