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. |
