I have taught a variety of subjects, from entomology to evolution. Most of my efforts, however, have been in the area of animal physiology,
especially neurobiology. Until I recently took an administrative position, my main teaching assignment was to teach an introductory neurobiology
course I developed.

Topics Taught:
- Animal Biology
- Entomology for Nonmajors
- Evolution and Population Genetics
- Insect Physiology
- Insect Behavior
- Introductory Neurobiology

Recognized by inclusion in the University of Illinois "Incomplete List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent by Their Students."

Because I was dissatisfied with the neurobiology texts that were available for beginning biology students, I set out in 1992 to write my own.
The book, Foundations of Neurobiology, was published by W.H. Freeman & Co. in October, 1997. It has been adopted by many Universities and
has been translated into Japanese. A Spanish translation is also well underway. In 1998 a CD ROM was produced to accompany the book,
largely by the efforts of Dr. David Jensen of Tomball College and the
skilled designers at Sumanas Multimedia Development Services,
Sumanas Inc.
