First-Person Science Podcast

Interested in cutting-edge neuroscience research? Or cutting through the ribbons of public-accessibility for research articles? Introducing the First-Person Science Podcast: the first and only podcast dedicated to in-depth exploration of neuroscience research articles with first-hand perspectives and narratives from the authors themselves. FPS introduces a new way of discovering and engaging with neuroscience-based research articles, and breaks down barriers to science communication to encourage collaboration and discussion between scientists and the public, alike. In each episode, an FPS host interviews a scientist about their recent ‘first-author’ manuscript, walking listeners/viewers through figures and tables “1 bar graph at a time” with point-by-point visuals, figure illustrations, and summaries for those interested or without access to the research articles, or both. YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxIStqpo1YZRTFKn5m1J0iQ FPS aims to be relevant and interesting to both neuroscience experts and those without science backgrounds by breaking down jargon and complicated concepts in entertaining and succinct ways. Listeners can expect to learn learn cool facts and get a general background for everything to do with the episode's chosen journal article in ~35 mins or less via an audio-book style interview-podcast, but for journal articles, with narratives and first-person perspectives from the authors/scientists themselves. It's a fine line to manage, but we're doing our best! Listen to our podcast on itunes, spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
