Bob WyttenbachTeaching Professor and Director of Undergraduate Studies

Bob Wyttenbach joined the Emory NBB program in 2013. He completed his PhD in Neurobiology and Behavior at Cornell University in 1995 and then stayed on to continue his research in insect hearing and to develop teaching materials with support from the NSF. He has written or coauthored resources such as Crawdad (neurophysiology lab manual), PsyCog (experiments in perception and cognition), and GameBug (evolutionary game theory tutorial). At Emory, Cornell, and elsewhere, he gives faculty neurophysiology teaching workshops with others on the Cornell team. Link to Dr. Wyttenbach's CV.
