Daniel Colon Ramos

Yale University

Share

Daniel Colón-Ramos is an Associate Professor of Cell Biology at the Yale School of Medicine.  His lab uses C. elegans to study how the brain forms precise neural connections during development. Colón-Ramos was born and raised in Puerto Rico and is a co-founder of Ciencia Puerto Rico (http://www.cienciapr.org/en), a non-profit organization that connects Puerto Rican scientists who are spread around the globe, to promote scientific research and education in Puerto Rico.
