Long Citation (for publication and press release)
Dr. Ann Marie Craig is internationally recognized for her pioneering contributions to the field of molecular and cellular neurobiology. She has made some of the most important advances in neuroscience in the past decade, and her fundamental contributions have established our present view of the structure of central nervous system synapses, the scaffolding and cell surface proteins responsible for receptor localization, and the dynamic regulation of receptor trafficking regulated by protein kinases. Her work has important significance for the development of new and effective therapies for numerous neurological and psychiatric diseases, including stroke, Alzheimer's, autism, schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression.
