In conversation with Klaus-Armin Nave

This article has been updated

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 Klaus-Armin Nave (Director at the Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences, Germany), a glia researcher and molecular biologist who is interested in glia–neuron interactions and a pioneer in the study of the ability of myelinating cells to metabolically support axons.
