An unusual start to a neuroscience career

Caption

Geir Wing Gabrielsen, now a biologist at the Norwegian Polar Institute, and 2024 Kavli Prize winner Nancy Kanwisher back in 1979, when Gabrielsen came to study with Kanwisher's father, John. As part of their research, Gabrielsen and Kanwisher raised cormorants and Canada geese to study their physiological response to diving. The research resulted in an article in Science magazine – a first, but not the last, for Nancy Kanwisher.
