Zoology prof receives 2015 CAN Young Investigator Award

 The Canadian Association for Neuroscience (CAN) will honour zoology professor Michael Gordon with the 2015 CAN Young Investigator Award at the upcoming annual Canadian Neuroscience Meeting in Vancouver. Gordon’s research provides insight into two critical decisions that humans and animals have to make: what to eat, and how much. He studies this complex question in the fruit fly and has significantly contributed to the understanding of the neural circuits that drive taste responses and feeding preferences.
