The 2017 Neurofutures conference was held at UBC. It was a great opportunity to learn about the latest neuroscience technologies and tools – fluorescent probes, tissue clearing and imaging, expansion microscopy techniques, synthetic protein engineering, and more. The 3rd day was a hands-on workshop on many of the methods that were presented, and the general feeling was something like, “Whoah, not only are these techniques super cool, but I think they might actually be useful and we can actually do them!” And so one of the themes that was really exciting was that by doing science for the sake of others, by sharing, we are clearly going to make the greatest progress.
