We would like to thank our amazing team for all of the work that goes into every episode of AMiNDR. Today's episode was scripted, hosted and edited by Alexandra Pavel, and reviewed by Judy Cheng and Ellen Koch. The bibliography was created by Jacques Ferreira and Sarah Louadi generated the wordcloud on www.wordart.com. 

Big thanks to the sorting team for sorting all the papers published in May into themes for our episodes: Jacques Ferreira, Elyn Rowe, Ellen Koch, Christy Yu, Nicole Corso, and Naila Kuhlmann. 

Also, props to our management team, which includes Sarah Louadi, Ellen Koch, Naila Kuhlmann, Elyn Rowe, Anusha Kamesh, and Jacques Ferreira, for keeping everything running smoothly.

Our music is from "Journey of a Neurotransmitter" by musician and fellow neuroscientist Anusha Kamesh; you can find the original piece and her other music on soundcloud under Anusha Kamesh or on her YouTube channel, AKMusic.
