Stuart Firestein Biography

Stuart Firestein demonstrates to students and in-house researchers that ignorance is undeniably more crucial to revelation than knowledge. As the chair of Columbia University's Department of Biological Sciences, Dr. Stuart Firestein works with colleagues to research the vertebrate olfactory system, which is arguably the finest artificial discovery of the planet's essence. His laboratory aims to address that fundamental human question: How would I smell? Firestein fills in as counsel for the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation's initiative for the Public Understanding of Science because he is committed to promoting science's accessibility to a wide audience. He just received the 2011 Lenfest Distinguished Columbia Faculty Award for his outstanding grant-making and teaching. Ignorance How it Drives Science, his book on the workings of science for the general public, was published by Oxford University Press.
