Jonathan Prather, Faculty Fellow

Jonathan Prather is the Director of the Life Sciences Program and a Professor in the Department of Zoology & Physiology and the Program in Neuroscience.  His research focuses on how cells and circuits in the brain enable us to perceive the world around us, remember and recall those experiences, and use that information to make decisions.  As a Faculty Fellow, he will study how students were impacted by the changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and how we can learn from those experiences to improve the well-being and academic success of current and future students.
