In this NCTalks podcast, we’re reporting from Neuroscience 2016 in San Diego (CA, USA; 12–16 November 2016). We spoke to Patricia Garcez from the Federal University of Rio Janeiro in Brazil, who presented at the conference her work on Zika virus and its disruption of normal cell division and differentiation. Zika virus was highlighted as one of the key research themes at the conference and remains a focus for researchers into 2017 as the world continues to face this global health challenge – in this interview, Patricia discusses her work and her hopes for the field in the coming months and years.
