Juan Lerma – Neuroscience’s Editor-in-Chief

Juan Lerma is a Professor at the Spanish Research Council (CSIC) at the Neuroscience Institute of Alicante (CSIC-UMH) (Director, 2007-2016). He joined CSIC Scientific Staff in 1990 after a stay in the USA at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine (NY) and since then he has been working on the molecular basis of neuronal communication, specifically elucidating the properties and signaling mechanisms of Glutamate Receptors and their role in health and disease. He was elected an EMBO member in 2000 and belongs to the DANA Alliance and the Academia Europaea. He is the Secretary General of FENS and past Chair of the Pan-European Regional Committee of IBRO.

Daniela Schiller got her PhD at Tel Aviv University and then continued to do a postdoctoral fellowship at New York University. She joined Mount Sinai in 2010 and has been directing the laboratory of affective neuroscience since. Her lab has delineated the neural computations of threat learning, how the brain modifies emotional memories using imagination, and the dynamic tracking of affective states and social relationships. Schiller is a Fulbright Fellow and a Kavli Frontiers of Science Fellow, and has been the recipient of many awards, including the New York Academy of Sciences’ Blavatnik Award, and the Klingenstein-Simons Fellowship Award in the Neurosciences.
