Westminster Psychology Professor Published
Dr. Alan Gittis, professor and chair of psychology at Westminster College, published an invited editorial in the Journal of Undergraduate Neuroscience Education.
The editorial, "Developing Graduate-Undergraduate Neuroscience Connections," discusses the idea of providing a two-year residency at liberal arts schools for new Ph.D.'s in neuroscience.
"We have an ample supply of undergraduate sites that can provide exemplary training experiences, a substantial cohort of talented neuroscience trainees who would be interested in these experiences, and members of the graduate training faculty who recognized the need for such a program." wrote Gittis. "There are a multitude of interested neuroscientists out there and they are begging for ways to find connections between neuroscience graduate professional training and neuroscience undergraduate education."
Gittis, who has been with Westminster College since 1976, earned his Ph.D. from The Ohio State University and serves on the executive board and is a former president of the Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience.
