[tips] David Hubel, RIP
David Hubel, one half of the famous Hubel Wiesel research team that provided such profound research on the neurophysiology of early vision, is dead. Here is a NY Times article on him, his research, and his life (he was a Canadian and fortunately for Canada, not an embarrassment like the Canadian born buffoon currently boviating the U.S. Congress) see: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/25/science/david-hubel-nobel-winning-scientist-dies-at-87.html?nl=todaysheadlinesemc=edit_th_20130925_r=0pagewanted=all I am somewhat surprised that Tipsters have not noted this earlier because the Washington Post had an obituary in the Washington Post on Monday, September 23 (see: http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/obituaries/david-h-hubel-nobel-prize-winning-neuroscientist-dies-at-87/2013/09/23/5a227c2c-7167-11e2-ac36-3d8d9dcaa2e2_story.html ) as did the website of the Boston Globe (see: http://www.boston.com/metrodesk/2013/09/23/nobel-laureate-david-hubel-who-taught-harvard-medical-school-dies/IXFS4uNm5hKZd6YJH0XQcL/story.html ). I guess acknowledging one of psychologist's Nobel prize winners was not a priority. Hubel's research partner Torsten Wiesel, emeritus professor and President of Rockefeller University, is still keeping busy; see: http://www.rockefeller.edu/research/faculty/labheads/TorstenWiesel -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.

Re: [tips] David Hubel, RIP
Thanks for the alerts and links. I have fond memories of hearing both David Hubel and Torten Weisel present their research at colloquia when I was a grad student. I was impressed by their interest in students as much as I was by their research. Claudia _ Claudia J.
