In this, fourth edition of the Amsterdam Neuroscience MAGAZINE, you’ll find a series of nine interviews with a selection of neuroscientists from our Amsterdam Neuroscience research institute. It is the researchers that work daily on the future of neuroscience that are showcased in our magazine. Each of them explores the potential of individuality in science in their own way, be it directly or indirectly.
The science of individuality
Individuality has become a point of current interest in neuroscience. Studying individuality can happen in many ways – from the fields of personalized or precision medicine, to individual differences in the field of genetics or optimizing/reducing individual variance in fundamental research. Despite this inspiring development, however, there are still many questions that arise… Where exactly are we in the research field of individuality? How do researchers prioritize individual differences in their studies and how do you study them in fundamental or clinical research? And what does the future of individuality look like?
Passionate researchers
We hope the interviews featured in this issue help answer some of those questions to a degree. After all, who better than a team of passionate researchers to guide (and inspire) you in the wonderful world of the science of individuality.
