thank you so much for the wonderful interview! it was great to discuss my Neuropixels research and its importance for language science 🧠👂✨

Incredibly excited to share our paper on the impact of partial reprogramming on neurogenic niches of the old brain (in mice)!!

Massive congratulations to first-author Lucy Xu and all the authors!! 🌟🙌🍾
