Shigeki Watanabe Received Randall J. Reed Scholars Award
Dr. Watanabe’s lab focuses on synaptic transmission and plasticity. His team pioneered an approach to capturing membrane dynamics by using a flash and freeze method that creates a kind of “flip book” at millisecond intervals. He has also discovered a new, ultrafast endocytic pathway. Watanabe was named a Sloan Research Fellow in 2018, a McKnight Scholar in 2019, a Chan Zuckerberg Initiative grantee to study neurodegenerative diseases, and is a recipient of the Johns Hopkins Catalyst Award.
Please join us in congratulating Shigeki on being one of the first recipients of the Randall J. Reed Scholars award.
