The article is an interview with Dorit Hockman, a Senior Lecturer at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, who studies gene regulation in the developing nervous system.

She highlights the challenges and highlights of starting her own research group in South Africa, focusing on lamprey neural crest and human neurodevelopment.
