\n NEW YORK, November 13, 2023 (Newswire.com)\n -\n <\/strong>Today marks the launch of The Transmitter<\/i><\/a>, a new publication focused on helping neuroscientists stay current on the latest developments in the field and build new connections.<\/p>\n

Created by the team that brings Spectrum<\/i><\/a> to autism researchers, The Transmitter<\/i> will provide essential news, insights and resources across neuroscience disciplines and career stages. Spectrum<\/i> will continue to publish news and perspectives on autism research as an anchor of The Transmitter<\/i>. Like Spectrum<\/i>, The Transmitter<\/i> is an editorially independent publication of the Simons Foundation.<\/p>\n

\u201cNeuroscience discoveries are rapidly shifting our understanding of biological phenomena \u2014 and, in fact, what it means to be human,\u201d says editor-in-chief Ivan Oransky. \u201cThe Transmitter<\/i> is committed to being an essential resource, delivering content that enables researchers across the field to stay current on the latest news and findings while building a digital community for communication and collaboration that can help advance scientific research.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Transmitter<\/i> ensures that the most compelling news and insights, written by science journalists and scientists, are curated and centralized in one place. News and features provide deeper analysis of developments in the field. A diversity of voices in the neuroscience community provides readers with varied points of view, and essays and opinions from experts offer perspectives on emerging topics.<\/p>\n

The inaugural \u201cedition\u201d includes essays and articles on a range of topics, including how cancer hijacks the nervous system to seed tumors, metastasize and even resist therapy; how neural implants to treat epilepsy are revealing secrets about real-world recall; and how some neuroscientists are redirecting their analytic skills to tackle the existential problem of climate change. It also features a podcast interview with Nobel Prize winner Ardem Patapoutian; a video tour of the custom fly-releasing \u201cPEZ dispenser\u201d and mini-IMAX theater scientists are using to map out \u2014 neuron by neuron \u2014 how individual insects respond to an imaginary predator; and a photo gallery of people with early-onset Alzheimer\u2019s disease describing in their own words why they participate in clinical studies.<\/p>\n

A core group of contributing editors from leading institutions will help shape the content and contribute editorially.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe research being conducted in neuroscience is among the most ambitious in any fundamental science,\u201d says Simons Foundation president, David Spergel. \u201cAs the Simons Foundation broadens its support for this work, it is also committed to supporting the launch and growth of an exciting new publication dedicated to covering the field. The time is right.\u201d<\/p>\n\n \n Contact Information:<\/strong>\n\n
