Today, we said goodbye to part of the life science team. Alex Escobar, Senior Lecturer and Director of the Undergraduate Laboratories in Biology, left this afternoon and Rustom Antia, a Professor in Biology who is doing research on developing a quantitative understanding of the dynamics of pathogens and immune responses left yesterday afternoon.
The neuroscience unit, led by Carol Worthman, Samuel Candler Dobbs Professor of Anthropology and director of the Laboratory for Comparative Human Biology at Emory, and Chuck Raison, assistant professor in the Mind-Body Program, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Emory's School of Medicine, began this morning and will run for 6 days (up until the end of next week). The monastic leaders seem particularly interested in neuroscience. The morning's lectures were complemented by input from Mark Risjord, Associate Dean of the Graduate School, and Associate Professor in Philosophy. Here you see some photos I took of the monastic leaders carrying out neuroscience investigations this afternoon.
