• W2016707213 abstract "The Henry Gray award is the most prestigious award of the American Association of Anatomists (AAA). This award is made annually to an AAA member in recognition of his or her unique contributions to, and achievements in, the anatomical sciences. The Henry Gray laureate for 2001 is Edward George Jones, who is presently the Director of the Center for Neuroscience at the University of California at Davis. Ted Jones' accomplishments, number and range of publications, and interests, are such that one looks at his curriculum vitae and wonders “how has one person managed to accomplish so much?” Ted Jones was born in Wellington, New Zealand and he received his M.D. with distinction from the University of Otago in New Zealand in 1962. Upon receiving his medical degree he served as an intern and was a medical practitioner before being appointed as a Demonstrator in Anatomy at the University of Otago in 1964. In that role he taught the full range of anatomy courses including gross anatomy, neuroanatomy, and histology. He was then promoted to an Assistant Lecturer, and in 1966 he left New Zealand on sabbatical leave to go to Oxford University in England, where he stayed for two years. At Oxford he worked with Tom Powell, and obtained a Ph.D. During this extremely productive sabbatical leave Ted Jones further developed his interest in cerebral cortex and in the thalamus. Dr. Edward George Jones In the two-year period with Tom Powell, Ted Jones published a series of important articles on, among other things, the association and callosal connections in the cortex of the cat, the fine structure of the synaptic glomeruli in the thalamus of the cat, as well as the fine structure of cortical neurons and connections of neurons in the somatic sensory cortex of the cat and rhesus monkey. In fact, over a three-year period Ted Jones published over twenty articles with Tom Powell—insightful articles that laid much of the foundation of our present understanding of the neocortex and its connections. In 1968, the quality of this work was recognized by the Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland, who awarded Ted Jones the Symington Prize, and in 1970 he also received the Rolleston Memorial Prize from Oxford University. Ted Jones then returned to New Zealand, and continued his studies of the cerebral cortex, but in 1972 he was lured away to take a position as Associate Professor of Anatomy at Washington University School of Medicine at St Louis, Missouri. This was the year that he joined the American Association of Anatomists. Later, in 1975, he was promoted to the rank of Professor and 1981 he transferred his affections to the budding discipline of neuroscience, becoming Professor of Neuroscience and George and Ethel Ronzoni Bishop Scholar in Neuroscience, in the Division of Experimental Neurology and Neurological Surgery, which was headed by James O'Leary. During this time at Washington University Ted worked with a number of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, on a variety of research projects including the projections of thalamic nuclei to various cortical areas, and the projections of output neurons from the cerebral cortex. In 1988 Ted Jones left St. Louis to become Professor and Chairman of the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at the University of California at Irvine, and in 1988 he was also appointed Director of the Neural Systems Laboratory of the Frontier Research Program in Rinken, Japan. More recently, in 1998, Ted moved from Irvine to take up the position of Director of the Center for Neuroscience, in the University of California at Davis. As pointed out, Ted Jones' main interests have centered on the cerebral cortex and the thalamus and the relationships between these two entities. They are the subjects of the bulk of his scientific articles, although more recently he has also become interested in the brain abnormalities that occur in Schizophrenia. Ted is a prolific and lucid author, who I am told still writes with a pen, and he has published some 250 original scientific articles as well as numerous reviews and chapters. The techniques that he has used in his research career cover a broad range. His studies extend through anatomical ones carried out at both the light and electron microscopic levels; the use of antibodies to differentiate between various kinds of neurons and the locations of receptors; to molecular biology and electrophysiology. In addition to the many articles and chapters that Ted Jones has produced, he has also been involved in authoring and editing over twenty books. His first book published in 1982,was written with A.L. Berman and was an atlas of “The Thalamus and Basal Telencephalon of the Cat.” The thalamus has also been the focus of some of his other books. For example, in 1985 he published a monumental work on “The Thalamus.” This is the essential source for anyone seeking information about the features and connections of the various nuclei in the thalamus and it is good to know that Ted is now busy revising this book. Then in 1997, with Mircea Steriade and David McCormick, he published a two-volume work entitled “Thalamus.” Other books have centered on the cerebral cortex and between 1984 and 2000, he and Alan Peters edited a series that covered 14 volumes and was appropriately entitled “Cerebral Cortex.” Those working on cerebral cortex recognize this series as being an essential resource for background information. In addition to his other activities, Ted has always had an interest in the history of neuroscience and so in 1988 he and Javier DeFelipe, of the Cajal Institute in Madrid, brought together and published annotated translations of the articles that Ramón y Cajal had written on cerebral cortex. This volume was followed in 1991 by these same two authors publishing a new edition of May's translation of the book that Cajal wrote on the degeneration and regeneration of the nervous system, making this important work by Cajal more accessible to all neuroscientists. Appropriately, Ted Jones writing skills, and his wide interests and knowledge, have made him much sought after by scientific journals who have asked him to join their boards of editors. Consequently in 1975 Max Cowan persuaded Ted to become an associate editor of the Journal of Comparative Neurology, a position that he held for five years. Since then he has served on the editorial boards of Brain Research and Developmental Brain Research, Journal of Neuroscience, Journal of Neurocytology, Experimental Brain Research, Reviews in Neuroscience, Anatomy and Embryology, Cerebral Cortex, Neuroscience, and Journal of Chemical Neuroanatomy. This list includes practically all of the well-known journals in the fields of neuroscience. The influence of Ted Jones' studies on the field of Neuroscience is shown by the fact that in 1984 he was listed by Science Citation Index as one of the 250 most cited authors, and the importance and significance of Ted Jones' research has been recognized through the many honors he has received. These honors include being named a Javits Investigator by NIH, the bestowing of a Kreig Cortical Kudos award by the Cajal Club in 1989, a distinguished Research Award by the U.C. Irvine Alumni Association, and being awarded an Honorary Doctor of Medicine degree by the University of Salamanca in Spain in 1997. But perhaps Ted Jones' role as a leader in the field of neuroscience was best acknowledged by his peers when they elected him to become President of the Society for Neuroscience in 1999. This Society is the largest and most influential one in the field of neuroscience and since the Society has more than 26,000 members to draw upon, to be chosen as their president is indeed an honor. With the presentation of the Henry Gray award for 2001 to Edward G. Jones, the American Association of Anatomists recognizes the meritorious work that he has carried out as a member of our association in advancing our knowledge of the structure and functioning of the nervous system." @default.
