New insights into the dynamics of the brain's cortex

“Roberto Fernández Galán has made an outstanding addition to the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine,” said Dean Pamela B. Davis, M.D., Ph.D. “We are excited about the impact of this paper in the field of neurosciences and are looking forward to his continued contributions to the top-tier research conducted by our faculty.”

The research was supported by the Mount Sinai Foundation, one of Greater Cleveland’s leading health philanthropies.

Galán joined the faculty at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in February 2008 following postdoctoral work at Carnegie Mellon University and the Center for Neural Basis of Cognition in Pittsburgh. Shortly after his arrival, he was named a scholar in the Mount Sinai Health Care Foundation Scholars program. Galán is the twelfth School of Medicine faculty member to be named to the program since it began in 1998.
