Ed and I have not worked directly in research, but our common interests in neuropsychiatry, seizures, and ECT have led to many discussions. Ed is well trained in psychiatry, neurology, and neuroradiology. His record as a researcher is outstanding. He is the nation’s leader in applications of MRI technology to problems of changes in brain fimction with depression, aging, ECT, and drug therapies. He has recently edited a book on neuropsychiatry and a few years ago edited a volume on advances in ECT, both for the American Psychiatric Press. He is an excellent teacher and speaker; a man of high moral character and impeccable manners. Ed is a family man; he has three children and is happily married. [I have met him and his family on numerous occasions] He is well liked by his co-workers and by his peers.
