The Latest From Our Speakers'
Series
January 2010 - On January 21, 2010 Dr. Jeremy Alden Teissere is an Associate
Professor of Biology and Neuroscience and the Director of the Neuroscience Program at
Muhlenberg College spoke at the Princeton Library.
His scholarship focuses on resolving the structure and function of the GABAA receptor,
the major inhibitory neurotransmitter receptor in the mammalian brain and the
primary target of tranquilizing drugs. Using a multimodal approach, the Teissere
laboratory integrates techniques borrowed from molecular biology, biochemical
modeling, neurophysiology, and pharmacology to understand the molecular basis of
anxiety and its therapeutic control.
September 2009 - On September 30, 2009 Dr. Susan Neiman, Director of the
Einstein Forum in Potsdam, Germany spoke at the Princeton Library.
Dr. Susan Neiman, studied at Harvard University and the Free University of Berlin.
She taught at Yale University, Tel Aviv University and then moved on to the Einstein
Forum. Dr. Neiman is the author of Moral Clarity.
March 2009 - Harvard Professor, Dr. Robert Kegan, spoke Thursday evening, March
26, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. at the Princeton Public Library, Witherspoon Street, Princeton,
New Jersey.
Professor Kegan's presentation was entitled, "The Hidden Curriculum of Everyday
Life." Dr. Kegan used humorous stories to demonstrate the findings of a lifetime of
research into the needs for adults to continue self-examinations of their capacities to
understand themselves and the world they live in.
Sentience looks forward to future speakers of this caliber in the near future.
