DISCIPLINE: Anatomy, Research Fields: Developmental biology (regeneration); Neurosciences (biology of memory, neural plasticity, eye transplantation)
Current Professional Interests:

* Website Producer (Shufflebrain)
* Neurosciences: the brain's role in creating and storing information; nature of neural information; analogy of the brain to the hologram.
* Developmental Biology: logic of regeneration [can the same abstract rules account for both organ regeneration and the storage of neural information?]
* Literary: Science education and enlightenment for the general public -- using the World Wide Web to bridge C. P. Snow's Two cultures gap; use of fiction for exploring and explaining scientific concepts and ideas (see http://www.indiana.edu/~pietsch/zook-title.html )
