Hello Bertalan: am enjoying this series. I have done a similar series of 10 phone interviews with neuroscientists and experts in the field of cognitive training-it is fun to have our blogs act as “bridges”.
Would you be interested in blogterviewing me regarding either article/ theme below?

I haven’t done any blogterview in my entire life. Would you mind sharing to us some tips on how to do it? I think it’s something that I really want to do.
Be interested in the interviewer’s life and work.
Ask them new questions that nobody has ever asked before.
Make them interested in the interview! If you’re interviewed by someone, you’ll definitely want to answer unique questions. And they also like it when they don’t have to answer the same kind of questions (like tell me about your blog, why did you start it, etc…).
