Abstract
In the timeline accompanying the Pathways of Discovery essay “Neuroscience: breaking down scientific barriers to the study of brain and mind” by E. R. Kandel and L. R. Squire (10 Nov., p. 1113), there are photos that are labeled to be of Rita Levi-Montalcini (my thesis advisor) and her collaborator Stanley Cohen (my friend). Perhaps the photo that the legend indicates is Stan Cohen is instead that of another Stanley Cohen? My photos of Stan Cohen of nerve growth factor/epidermal growth factor fame show a good head of hair, even at age 62. Editor's note The photo in the Pathways essay was indeed of “another Stanley Cohen,” a researcher well known for his pioneering role in genetic engineering. The Stanley Cohen referred to in the Pathways essay, a co-recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1986 and professor of biochemistry at Vanderbilt University, is pictured here.
