Dan Sanes
Dan Sanes
Professor  |  Principal Investigator
Dan received a doctorate in Biology from Princeton, followed by postdoctoral fellowships at Yale and the University of Virginia. He co-authored the undergraduate textbook “Development of the Nervous System,” served on the the National Deafness and Other Communication Disorders Advisory Council, was a Senior Editor at the Journal of Neuroscience, and 
was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2010.  The focus of his NIH-funded research centers on the influence of auditory experience (e.g., social learning, hearing loss) on CNS maturation.
