Ion channel structure
Some might argue that there is not much neuroscience left in the study of ion channels when the key experiments are carried out at the synchrotron and their interpretation involves atomic coordinates instead of picoamperes. But the truth is that crystallographic analysis has opened our eyes to new principles of channel function and is beginning to answer questions that neuroscientists have been asking for a long time.

Neural development
The adult brain is undoubtedly fascinating, but developmental neuroscientists are more concerned with the journey that brings it to this state than with the destination itself. In fact, it might be argued that the journey never really ends because neuronal circuits in the brain are continually modified throughout life.
