Dr Katie Hsiao is a Taiwanese neuroscience researcher at the prestigious Rockefeller University in New York. She’s a member of the Rajesethupathy Lab headed by Dr. Priya Rajesethupathy. She did her graduate work at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai where she trained under Dr. Deanna Benson. We talked about the smallest unit of cognitive computation, synapses. Also how synapses are the starting point for memory and psychiatric pathologies. This was an illuminating conversation. Enjoy!
