When my studies were completed I returned to Professor Bernhards's laboratory at the Karolinska Institute in 1954 to do basic neurophysiological research. The following year I had the good fortune to be invited to the United States as a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Stephen Kuffler's laboratory at the Wilmer Institute, Johns Hopkins Medical School . Dr. Kuffler had just published his now classical study of the receptive field arrangements of cat retinal ganglion cells. This was an important extension of the pioneering work of Drs. Hartline and Granit , for which they received the 1967 Nobel Prize. David Hubel joined the laboratory in 1968, and the two of us decided to explore the receptive field properties of cells in the central visual pathways. This marked the beginning of our twenty year collaboration. In 1959 Dr. Kuffler was invited to become a professor of pharmacology at Harvard Medical School I was married to Teeri Stenhammar 1956-1970 and Ann Yee 1973-1981. My daughter Sara Elisabeth was born in 1975. Aside from my work my interests lie in the arts and in world affairs. Honors and Awards A.M. (Hon.)

"The usual grant required to endow a university professorship is $3 million, but the Board wanted this to be a special chair," said Furlaud. "We set our sights on $5 million and exceeded it." Three million dollars will be designated as endowment, and $2.4 million will be used to construct and equip a modern laboratory facility. The Torsten N. Wiesel Professorship will be reserved for an outstanding senior scientist recruited from outside the university.

Dr. Wiesel earned his medical degree from Karolinska Institute in Stockholm in 1954 and joined the Harvard Medical School faculty the same year as Hubel. Drs. Hubel and Wiesel studied the functional and structural details of the visual cortex.In the 1960s the pair studied the effects of abnormal visual experience on the immature nervous systems of young animals, simulating human amblyopia. Their work earned them the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1981.

Wiesel President-Emeritus, Rockefeller University Chairman of the Board, New York Academy of Sciences Torsten Wiesel received his M.D. from Karolinksa Institute in 1954. He has been President-emeritus at Rockefeller University since 1998, when he stepped down after seven years of service as Rockefeller's president. Under his leadership 30 new laboratories conducting vanguard research in key areas of biology, chemistry and physics were added, and the renowned Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center joined with Rockefeller in 1996. Professor Wiesel joined the Rockefeller faculty in 1983 to head a new laboratory of neurobiology, and later that year he was named the university's Vincent and Brooke Astor Professor. Prior to that he was on the faculty at Harvard Medical School and Chairman of the Department of Neurobiology. In 1998 Professor Wiesel was elected president of the International Brain Research Organization, which is based in Paris, and was named Secretary General of the Human Frontier Science Program in 2000. He also serves on numerous Boards, including Chair of the Board of Governors of the New York Academy of Sciences.
