Our guest is Dr. Larry Abbott, a pioneer in the field of theoretical neuroscience and also the co-director of the Center of Theoretical Neuroscience at Columbia University. We enjoyed learning about theoretical neuroscience as it relates to the broader neuroscience community from Dr. Abbott through our discussion of so many thought-provoking ideas. 

Experimentalists and theorists often exist in separate scientific circles, but we hope that our interview with Dr. Abbott can help stir up the imagination of scientists in both worlds to bring them together to help explore new frontiers in our understanding of human biology’s biggest remaining mystery.
