Renee Cockerham PhD is the Neuroscience Program Manager at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.  I talked with Renee at the annual meeting of the Society of Neuroscience about how enthusiasm for science is hard to teach but other skills can be learned. She also emphasizes that diverse backgrounds are needed in the growing field of neuroscience as they prepare the next generation of scientists.
