At nineteen years old, he was very fortunate to be part of Karl H. Pribram Research Team at The Institute of Living, in Hartford, Connecticut. In the operating room he assisted Pribram, a neurosurgeon. At that time, this research laboratory had the largest population of rhesus monkeys. Specific parts of a monkey’s brain were removed; in order, to study their effect on learning. He was also an assistant to Nathan Azrin, who received his doctorate from Harvard, a student of B.F. Skinner.
At that time, he was exposed to the best minds in neurophysiology, who visited from up and down the East Coast, Yale, MIT and etc.
The Author also spent thirty years working for innovative biomedical companies. He believes that his stories may be prophetic.ver menos
