Mark Schnitzer

MARK SCHNITZER, assistant professor of biological sciences and of applied physics, is one of 16 promising new researchers to receive a five-year, $625,000 Packard Fellowship for Science and Engineering in 2005. Established by the David and Lucile Packard Foundation in 1998, the fellowships are designed to strengthen university-based science and engineering programs by supporting unusually creative researchers early in their careers. Schnitzer's grant will examine whether principles of cerebellar operation derived from one motor task apply to other behaviors involving adaptive control.
