Dr. V.S. Ramachandran

Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition

Distinguished Professor with the Psychology Department and Neurosciences Program at

the University of California, San Diego,

Adjunct Professor of Biology at the Salk Institute.

Ramachandran initially trained as a doctor (MBBS) at Stanley Medical College, Madras,

India, and subsequently obtained a Ph.D. from Trinity College at the University of Cambridge.

After that, he received an honorary Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians; London

and two honorary doctorates (DSc; honors causa).

Ramachandran’s early work was on visual perception but he is best known for his experiments in behavioral neurology

which, despite their apparent simplicity, have had a profound impact on the way we think about the brain.

He has been called “The Marco Polo of neuroscience” by Richard Dawkins and “The modern Paul Broca” by Eric

Kandel.

In 2005 he was awarded the Henry Dale Medal and elected to an honorary life membership by the Royal Institution

of Great Britain, where he also gave a Friday evening discourse (joining the ranks of Michael Faraday, Thomas Huxley,

Humphry Davy, and dozens of Nobel Laureates). His other honors and awards include fellowships from All Souls

College, Oxford, and from Stanford University (Hilgard Visiting Professor); the Presidential Lecture Award from the

American Academy of Neurology, two honorary doctorates, the annual Ramon Y Cajal award from the

International Neuropsychiatry Society, and the Ariens-Kappers medal from the Royal Netherlands Academy of

Sciences. In 2003 he gave the annual BBC Reith lectures and was the first physician/psychologist to give the lectures

since they were begun by Bertrand Russel in 1949. In 1995 he gave the Decade of the Brain lecture at the 25th annual

(Silver Jubilee) meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. In 2010 he delivered the annual Jawaharlal Nehru memorial

lecture in New Delhi, India. Most recently the President of India conferred on him the second highest civilian

award and honorific title in India, the Padma Bhushan. And TIME magazine named him on their list of the 100 most

influential people in the world.

Ramachandran has published over 180 papers in scientific journals (including five invited review articles in the

Scientific American). He is author of the acclaimed book “Phantoms in the Brain” that has been translated into nine

languages and formed the basis for a two part series on Channel Four TV (UK) and a 1 hour PBS special in USA.

NEWSWEEK magazine has named him a member of “The Century Club” – one of the “hundred most prominent

people to watch in the next century.” He has been profiled in the New Yorker Magazine and appeared on the Charlie

Rose Show. His new book, "The Tell Tale Brain" was on the New York Times best-seller list.
