My
first research interest was
in recording hippocampal neurons
in freely moving rats, with Howard
Eichenbaum, to look for a correlation
between cell
firing and behavior. In
1997 I edited a lab
manual called Discovering Neurons,
the Experimental Basis
of Neuroscience. This was coauthored
by Barb Beltz and Joanne Berger-Sweeney,
both of Wellesley College. It's
mission was to disseminate information
on laboratory exercises that
are "state of the art" and work
well at the undergraduate and
graduate level see...
In
2003 I was awarded an NSF educational
materials development grant with
Julio Ramirez, of Davidson College
and Bruce Johnson of Cornell
University. We developed the
web site The Neuron Connection,
which continues the work
started in
Discovering
Neurons. This can be found at...
My
interest in lab development is
continuing with a new project
for distribution of labs
in neuroscience. 'on line' with
Sinauer Associates
Inc.
