Steven Fisher Professor, MCDB |
|
Professor Fisher earned his Ph.D. in Neurobiology in 1969 at Purdue University where he studied the ultrastructural changes occurring during development of the amphibian retina during the time of retino-tectal specification. Part of his study for the Ph.D. was done in the Department of Biophysics at Johns Hopkins University, and in 1969 he moved, as an NIH postdoctoral fellow, to the Wilmer Institute of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine where he began working on the ultrastructure of vertebrate retina. Dr. Fisher moved to UCSB in 1971. His research is supported by research grants from the National Eye Institute and he is a recipient of a National Eye Institute Research Career Development Award and an NIH M.E.R.I.T. award. In 2002 he was awarded the Von Sallmann Prize for excellence in vision research. He is also part of a group of biological and computer scientists at UCSB funded by the National Science Foundation for research in the area of bio-image informatics. He was the founding Director of the Neurocience Research Institute at UCSB. Contact Information
