A Conversation with Kenneth Waltz
Kenneth Waltz's books and articles have definitively shaped the study of international relations over the past fifty years. He developed a version of “Realist” thinking on the subject that has structured research in the entire field for critics and supporters alike. On March 11 2011 at his home in New York he was interviewed by James Fearon a member of the Editorial Committee of the Annual Review of Political Science. The conversation ranged over some of his best-known arguments and the relationships between them his thinking about contemporary international politics and issues in the field that he thinks are understudied relative to their importance.

A Conversation with Robert A. Dahl
Robert A. Dahl the foremost living theorist of democracy is the emeritus Sterling Professor of Political Science at Yale University where he received his Ph.D. in 1940 and where he spent virtually his entire academic career. After five years working for the government—as a management analyst at the U.S. Department of Agriculture then as an economist in the Office of Price Administration and the War Production Board and finally as a member of the Army—he returned to Yale in 1946. With colleagues Charles Lindblom Robert Lane and others he helped build the first modern department of political science a department that asked major substantive questions while using the best social science techniques available at the time.
In this interview conducted on March 30 2008 by Margaret Levi for the Annual Review of Political Science Dahl grounds his motivation for studying democracy not only in his academic encounters but also in his experiences growing up in Alaska attending public schools there and working with longshore workers as a boy. He does not want to replicate the utopian visions of classical philosophers. His commitment is to the development of an empirical model of democracy that guides scholars in their efforts to determine the extent of democratization throughout the world as well as in the United States. Normatively he is committed to a democracy that recognizes the rights and voice of all who have a legitimate claim to citizenship.

A Conversation with Rita Levi-Montalcini
The Annual Review of Physiology presents an interview with Dr. Rita Levi-Montalcini. Dr. Moses Chao interviewed her in September of 2008. Of Dr. Levi-Montalcini Dr. Chao says: There are very few proven theories that exist in biology. One that has stood the test of time is the neurotrophic theory. It explains why only half of the neurons produced early in development are needed to form a functional nervous system. The explanation came from the discovery of nerve growth factors (NGFs) which help nourish neurons guide their axons to their proper connections and prevent cell death. Rita Levi-Montalcini who formulated this idea celebrated her 100th birthday on April 22 2009 in Rome. I had the opportunity to interview her at the European Brain Research Institute (EBRI) in September 2008 which forms the basis of this interview.

A supplemental video from the 2008 review by Conor L. Evans and X. Sunney Xie "Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering Microscopy: Chemical Imaging for Biology and Medicine" from the Annual Review of Analytical Chemistry.
Video demonstrating the ability of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy to image the human retina. The movie shows a 100x magnification 180 μm × 180 μm 55-μm forward propagating CARS (F-CARS) depth stack through an ex vivo human retina at the lipid band. The animation begins at the retina surface where a capillary can be seen on top of the nerve fiber layer. As the depth increases each layer of the retina can be seen with the photoreceptor layer imaged at a final depth of 55 μm.
