Richard Graham Michael Morris , CBE FRS FRSE [1] neuroscientist . He is known for developing the Morris water navigation task ,[2] synaptic tagging (along with Julietta U. Frey (formerly published under Uwe Frey), and for his work on the function of the hippocampus .[3] [4]
He is the director of the Centre for Cognitive and Neural Systems (Edinburgh )[5] University of Edinburgh .[6] Royal Society of Edinburgh [7] fellow of the Royal Society .[8] Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2007.[1]
Morris, together with Tim Bliss (Francis Crick Institute ) and Graham Collingridge (University of Bristol ) were named as winners of the 2016 Brain Prize for their discoveries about the way synaptic connections in the hippocampus are strengthened by stimulation. The process, known as long-term potentiation (LTP), forms the basis of the ability to learn and to remember.[9]
He was elected Member of the National Academy of Sciences in April 2020.[10]
Education
[ edit ]
Morris received his BA in natural science from Trinity Hall, Cambridge and D.Phil. from the University of Sussex in 1973. He was a lecturer at the University of St Andrews from 1977 to 1986 where he developed the Morris water navigation task. He moved to the University of Edinburgh in 1986.
