Schlag, John

John is Emeritus Professor of Neurobiology, Brain Research Institute and School of Medicine, UCLA. His research interests include brain organization related to perception and movement. Noted for his careful research techniques and clear analytical reasoning, John was a superb advisor and mentor. [Personal Note: John was my advisor and mentor when I did my doctorate at UCLA’s Brain Research Institute in the mid 1960s. I conducted my experiments in his laboratory. Upon reading the first draft of my thesis, he asked for a rewrite so that an “intelligent junior high school student could understand it.” That admonition has come with me through life and careers. I was not happy then but I am now. Thanks, John! Robert Lawrence Kuhn]
