Ted Abel gives 2021 Presidential Lecture November 7
Date: Monday, November 1, 2021
Ted Abel, the Roy J. Carver Chair in Neuroscience, says he knew in high school he wanted to become a neuroscientist, specifically a neurochemist. But since there was no neuroscience college course major at the time, he took an indirect route into the field. Abel, who is one of the country’s leading neuroscience researchers, will present the UI’s 38th Presidential Lecture on Sunday, Nov. 7, at 3:30 p.m., in the Iowa Memorial Union Main Lounge. Masks are strongly encouraged. Information on how to participate virtually will be coming soon.
