In conversation with Richard Tsien

As Nature Neuroscience celebrates its 25th anniversary, we are having conversations with both established leaders in the field and those earlier in their careers to discuss how the field has evolved and where it is heading. This month we are talking to Richard Tsien, the Druckenmiller Professor of Neuroscience in the Department of Neuroscience and Physiology at New York University Langone Medical Center. We discussed his upbringing and wide-ranging career, which has included foundational research on Ca²⁺ channels and synaptic plasticity.
