*The Shearn Award in Neuroscience, named in honor of Psychology Professor Don Shearn, is awarded to an outstanding Neuroscience thesis student chosen by the Neuroscience advisors. This award began in 2018.
**The Arnold B. Scheibel Neuroscience award is an annual award in honor of Dr. Scheibel (1923-2017), one of the founders of modern neuroscience who had a special connection with CC. The award is given to a neuroscience major whose work and character exemplify the spirit of Dr. Scheibel's profound love of the brain. This award was offered from 1997 until 2020.
Dr. Scheibel passed away on April 3, 2017 at the age of 94; his autobiography is here; a retrospective is here.
