Gweneth Card
Caltech
GRASS FELLOW
Investigates how the fruit fly chooses amongst several different take-off behaviors, and how this choice correlates directly with the function of neurons in the fly’s brain.
Catherine Carr
University of Maryland
Investigates hearing in turtles.

Maurice Chacron
McGill University
GRASS FACULTY
Investigates mechanisms by which we use our sensory systems (e.g. vision, audition) to interact with our environment.
Boris Chagnaud
Cornell University
GRASS FELLOW
Investigates the role of sensory systems in shaping behavioral decisions, currently studying vocal-auditory integration in the midshipman fish, Porichthys notatus.

Fred Chang
Columbia University
Studies the basic mechanism of cell division using yeast and sea urchins as model organisms.
  Richard Chappell
Hunter College
Investigates the role of neural interactions in the retina. Efforts are curently focused on determining the role of ionic zinc (Zn2+) as a neuromodulator acting on retinal ion channels as it affects the processing of visual information.

John Clay
National Institutes of Health
Investigates the effect of noisy transients on neuronal signaling
Lawrence Cohen
Yale University School of Medicine
Uses optical recordings with voltage and calcium sensitive dyes to study olfactory processing in the olfactory bulb.

Sean Colin
Roger Williams University
Investigating the role of nematocysts in determining prey selection by jellyfish.
John Costello
Providence College
Investigating the mechanical basis of a range of nematocyst-target interactions between jellyfish and their prey.

Gaudenz Danuser
The Scripps Research Institute
MBL FELLOW
Developing computer software for the analysis and modeling of chromosome segregation during cell division using live cell microscope movies.
  Paul De Weer
University of Pennsylvania
Studies a ubiquitous cell membrane protein called the "sodium pump" that maintains the proper balance of salt inside and outside the cell.

Reinaldo DiPolo
Instituto Venezolano Investigaciones
Studies mechanisms of calcium transport across the membrane of nerve cells.
