Professor Anthony A. Grace (United States of America)
Anthony A. Grace received his Ph.D. in Pharmacology at Yale University. He is now Professor of Neuroscience, Psychiatry, and Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Grace’s research interests lie at the interface of neurobiology and psychiatry. Experiments conducted in his laboratory combine in vivo and in vitro electrophysiological recordings of identified neurons with behavioural and neuroanatomical techniques to study central dopaminergic systems, with the ultimate goal of determining the neurobiological correlates of mental disorders and the modes of
action of psychotherapeutic drugs. Dr. Grace has won numerous recognitions for his work, including the Dr. Paul Janssen Schizophrenia Research Award, the Daniel H. Efron Award, and a MERIT award from NIMH. He is also on the advisory board for NAMI, NARSAD, the Schizophrenia Research Forum, and is on the board of directors for the Schizophrenia International Research Society.
