   [29]Olaf Sporns.jpg Olaf Sporns (born in Kiel, Germany, 1963) is a
   neuroscientist. He is best known for his work on the network principles that
   underlie the architecture and function of the [30]human brain. After pursuing an
   undergraduate degree in biochemistry at the University of Tubingen in Germany, he
   received a PhD in neuroscience from Rockefeller University (New York) in 1990.
   Following his PhD, he conreceived a PhD in neuroscience from Rockefeller
   University (New York) in 1990. Following his PhD, he conducted postdoctoral work
   at The Neurosciences Institute in New York and San Diego. Currently he is a
   professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Indiana
   University in Bloomington, where he served as the associate chair from 2005-2011.
   Sporns is also a member of the Graduate Programs in Cognitive Science and
   Neuroscience, and an adjunct professor in the School of Informatics and
   Computing. After winning an Outstanding Junior Faculty Award in 2002, he received
   the Distinguished Faculty Award from Indiana University College of Arts and
   Sciences in 2008. In 2011, he received a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial
