He is Professor of Pathology, Emory University School of Medicine; Associate Research Professor in the Division of Neuropharmacology and Neurologic Diseases at the Yerkes National Primate Research Center of Emory University; and faculty affiliate in the Department of Anthropology, Emory University. His research has focused on the organization and evolution of primate cerebral cortex, particularly visual and frontal cortex, and he has authored a series of papers exploring the application of modern phylogenetic concepts and methods to problems of brain evolution. Recently, his research has concentrated on identifying evolutionary specializations of cerebral cortex, using information derived from genomics studies to guide histological and anatomical investigations, and comparative neuroimaging studies of humans, chimpanzees, and other nonhuman primates.
