2003 Dart Scholars Program in Learning and Memory
Dart Scholars Program in Learning and Memory
The first three scientists have been named Dart Scholars in Learning and Memory this summer. Sponsored by a generous grant from Dart Neuroscience, these awards bring top scientists in the field of learning and memory together to conduct research at the MBL for the summer.
David Glanzman, Ph.D., Professor in the Departments of Physiological Science and Neurobiology at UCLA, Los Angeles, California, who will be investigating Serotonin-induced release of calcium from intracellular stores in Aplysia motor neurons.
Michale S. Fee, Ph.D., Principal Investigator in the Biological Computation Research Department, Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies, Murray Hill, New Jersey and an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Molecular Biology, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey. He will study Neural dynamics in avian song.
Richard D. Mooney, Ph.D., Associate Professor in the Department of Neurobiology at the Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, who will investigate Neural bases of learning and memory, and the developmental mechanisms that limit sensitive periods for such processes.
