Antonio Damasio, a professor of neuroscience, directs the Brain and Creativity Institute at the University of Southern California. He's made seminal contributions to understanding how the brain processes memory, language, emotions and decisions.

Robert Gallo heads the Institute of Human Virology at the University of Maryland's Biotechnology Institute. The first to identify retroviruses in humans, he's the co-discoverer of the AIDS virus. His work sparked major advances in AIDS and cancer therapy. Gallo holds two Lasker Awards.

Solomon Snyder, a Lasker Award recipeint, founded the Department of Neuroscience at Johns Hopkins. He's discoverer of the opioid receptor and endorphins. He pioneered the labeling of neuroreceptors, enabling the ability to locate all of the brain's major neurotransmitter systems. Snyder's work laid a foundation for revealing the biology of mental illness.

James Watson is best known as co-discoverer of the structure and function of DNA, work that earned him a Nobel Prize. Watson was a driving force behind the Human Genome Project. He's been associated with New York's Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory some 40 years, as director, president and chancellor.
