David Schneider

Assistant Professor

Center for Neural Science

Ph.D. Columbia University

B.S. North Dakota State University

david.schneider@nyu.edu

David studied electrical engineering and biomedical engineering before transitioning into biology. David then earned a Ph.D. in neurobiology and behavior in the lab of Sarah Woolley at Columbia University and pursued postdoctoral training in the lab of Richard Mooney at Duke University. David holds a patent for his work designing intelligent pacemakers; is the recipient of several fellowships and awards; and once grew his hair shoulder-length and then got a perm.

Linke to Nick's Researchgate

Nicholas (Nick) studied Biochemistry at the University of Delaware before discovering his passion for neural circuits as a rotating graduate student. He earned his Ph.D. studying thalamocortical circuits with Dr. Alison Barth at Carnegie Mellon University. In the Schneider lab, Nick applies quantitative behavior and in vivo physiology to study how the auditory cortex uses motor-sensory predictions. Nick’s long-term research goals are to understand how distributed circuits enable flexible sensory processing and to prove that one of his cats really enjoys listening to music.

Ralph Peterson

Graduate Student

B.S. Northeastern University

rep359@nyu.edu

Ralph is a PhD student in neuroscience at NYU and is co-advised by Dan Sanes. He is studying social-vocal interactions in a gregarious rodent species, the Mongolian gerbil. He is also working with Alex Williams to develop new tools for localizing and attributing vocalization in a naturalistic, multi-animal environment.
