Christie D. Fowler is a neuroscientist whose experimental work includes the role of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in controlling nicotine intake. In a 2011 study, mice lacking the $\alpha 5$ receptor subunit consumed more nicotine; restoring the subunit in the medial habenula corrected this phenotype. Reducing the subunit locally in rats produced a corresponding change in intake.^[ref]

The combination of gene knockout and localized genetic rescue provides an illuminating experimental comparison: deleting a component throughout an animal shows that it matters, while restoring it in one brain region helps locate a sufficient site of action for the measured phenotype. The rat experiments further distinguished nicotine's rewarding effects from the inhibitory effects of higher doses. Loss of the latter signal helped explain increased intake; the result cannot simply be summarized as an increase in reward at every dose.^[ref]

A neuroscientist who authored an explanatory treatment of the nerve impulse from extracellular recordings. The account distinguishes the electrical signal measured outside a nerve from the underlying membrane events.^[ref]

A neuroscientist investigating fear learning and extinction.^[ref]

A neuroscientist studies the nervous system, connecting its structure, activity, development or evolution to function. Experiments can address processes from ion channels to animal behaviour; an explanation at one scale need not replace measurements at another.

A neuroscientist who coauthored experiments visualizing projections of olfactory sensory neurons expressing a particular odorant receptor. Genetic labeling and receptor replacements helped connect receptor identity to organization of the olfactory bulb.^[ref]
