Draft:Gwyneth Card

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Gwyneth Card is the Chair of the Department of Neuroscience[1][2] at Columbia University and an Investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

Card and her team study Drosophila escape behavior in ecologically relevant situations, combining high-throughput, high-resolution behavioral quantification with genetic, electrophysiological, and functional imaging techniques.[3]

Her h-index is 22.[4] Her research has been published in leading journals, including Nature[5][6] and the Annual Review of Neuroscience.[7]

Research by Card and her lab has been featured in the media, including PBS News,[8] STAT News[9] and The Transmitter.[10] [11] She and her team collaborated with researchers from Google DeepMind,[12] publishing a whole-body physics simulation of fruit fly locomotion.[13]
