Professor Ramachandran has been called ‘the Marco Polo of neuroscience’ by Richard Dawkins, and Newsweek magazine has named him a member of ‘The Century Club’ – one of the ‘hundred most prominent people to watch in the next century’. In 2003 he delivered the BBC’s Reith Lectures.
Professor Ramachandran is Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition at the University of California, San Diego, and Adjunct Professor of Biology at the Salk Institute for Biological Sciences.
