Charles F. Stevens
Charles F. "Chuck" Stevens (born 1934) is an American neurobiologist at the Salk Institute in La Jolla. He is currently the Vincent J. Coates Professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies and adjunct Professor of Pharmacology and Neuroscience at UCSD's School of Medicine. He is also an external professor at the Santa Fe Institute[1] and a general member of the Aspen Center for Physics.[2]
Major contributions
He is credited with several seminal discoveries regarding the molecular basis of synaptic transmission.[by whom?] In 2002, together with Dmitri Chklovskii, Stevens described the "3/5 Power Scaling law of neural circuits."
Stevens' work on ion channel conductance is regarded as having paved the way for Nobel laureate Erwin Neher's patch clamping techniques. Neher was a postdoctoral associate with Stevens at the University of Washington and then Yale University.[3]
Education
Stevens has a B.A. in psychology from Harvard University, where he began his education hoping to be a physician.[4] He then received an M.D. degree at Yale University, and a Ph.D. in biophysics from Rockefeller University with Keffer Harline. He was a member of the faculties at the University of Washington Medical School and at Yale Medical School before joining the Salk Institute.
Stevens has been an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences since 1982, and he was formerly an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.[5] He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1984.[6] In 2000 he was awarded the NAS Award for Scientific Reviewing from the National Academy of Sciences.[7]
