The Oxford Handbook of Invertebrate Neurobiology

John "Jack" H. Byrne, PhD is a professor and the June and Virgil Waggoner Chair in the Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy at McGovern Medical School at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth). He also serves as Director of the Neuroscience Research Center at UTHealth. Dr. Byrne's research uses a combination of experimental and computational approaches to provide an understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms of learning and memory. He has published as an author, co-author, or co-editor 215 journal articles, 84 book chapters, and 15 books. In his editorial capacities, Dr. Byrne has served as Editor in Chief of the journal Learning & Memory since 1996, in addition to serving as a member of the editorial boards of publications such as Behavioral Neuroscience, Journal of Neural Engineering, Journal of Neurobiology, Journal of Neurophysiology, Journal of Neuroscience, and Physiological Reviews.
