Summary
Paul Manis is a Professor Emeritus and NIH-funded neuroscientist with over four decades leading research in central auditory physiology, synaptic transmission, and ion channel function. He directed a sustained NIH research program and training grants, mentored large teams of trainees and clinicians, and has authored more than 70 peer-reviewed papers and nine book chapters. A seasoned NIH grant reviewer and former Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, he has chaired study sections across multiple institutes and shaped intramural program reviews. His lab combined electrophysiology, live-cell imaging, and computational modeling, and his software tools for patch clamp and synaptic analysis reflect a rare blend of hands-on bench expertise and scientific programming in languages from Assembler to Julia. Based in Chapel Hill, he pairs deep experimental insight with long-standing commitment to training the next generation of auditory neuroscientists.
