Eric Kandel picks the forthcoming breakthroughs in neuroscience

The Nobel laureate Eric Kandel tells us all about the forthcoming breakthroughs in neuroscience:

I list here four major accomplishments in neuroscience in the past year that have inspired me. I begin by saying that in a field as broad and as deep as neuroscience, it is difficult to select simply four contributions. I therefore consider this a sampling of the contributions that drive my optimism rather than a true selection of the top four. Moreover, I have simplified the task by dividing the field into four areas: Molecular Neuroscience, Systems Neuroscience, Cognitive Neuroscience, and Neuroscience of Psychiatric Disease.
