The Heiligenberg Lab intro
Dr. Walter Heiligenberg ran his lab from 1974 until his sudden and
tragic death in September, 1994. Walter Heiligenberg and the members
of his lab studied weakly electric fish. The gymotiform fish are
found throughout central and South America, as far north as Guatemala
and as far south as Argentina. The electric fish populations are most
abundant and diverse in the Amazon Basin.
The Heiligenberg Lab is located at Scripps Institution of Oceanography,
Hubbs Hall, with a beautiful the view of the
Pacific Ocean.
At this time,
Dr. T.H. Bullock is overseeing the Heiligenberg grants and
advising students.
