Mapping synaptic connectivity with mGRASP

Jinhyun “Jinny” Kim is a principal investigator at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (Seoul, South Korea). Her lab develops and uses advanced technologies to map mammalian synaptic connections to help understand how the complex mammalian brain functions. In this interview with Digital Editor Annie Coulson, Kim discusses the technique she developed for visualizing synaptic connections, along with the update that she presented in a special lecture at last year’s meeting of the Society for Neuroscience (SfN), Neuroscience 2023 (11–15 November; Washington DC, USA). Could you tell us about the technique you developed to map synaptic connections? When I...
