Dr. Notestein grew up in Texas and did his undergraduate work in New Jersey. He obtained his PhD at University of California, Berkeley, CA. When making the choice to find a school to teach in Dr. Notestein professes that his decision to choose Northwestern was based on the fact that in his particular research area Northwestern has actually been a world leader since 1930s. This Center that he is now the director of, has its origins way back then. The main work of the school was led by Vladimir N Ipatieff, (1857-1952.). Dr. Ipatieffs groundbreaking work in this area was so attractive that the Chemistry department owes a lot to Professor Ipatieff.

If we consider for example, water. Water is one of the major resources needed for human existence. preserving water is essential as it is a finite resource. Scientists like Dr. Notestein maintain the safety of water. Water pollution is when certain chemical processes invade the water and chemicals are introduced into the water system making it toxic and /or dangerous. For example, chromium salts are tracked very very closely in the waters of Lake Michigan,.Unfortunately some very important process have used chromium leaving a dangerous level in the natural environment. Dr Notestein and his team/ school create chemical processes to dilute or change the chemical in a way that may turn it into another chemical. This is explained as a safer and more cost efficient system than trying to clean it in older less current process.

As Evanston Magazines first “professor you should know” Dr. Notestein is a great representative of the higher quality of the kind of professor that Northwestern attracts. Education

HEALING THE BRAIN, TRANSFORMING LIVES

Center for Clinical Neuroscience

State of the art & research neuromodulation treatment for adolescents and young adults

Is your response to medications not providing sufficient symptom relief? Are mood or anxiety symptoms interfering with optimal cognitive and functional performance? Are you looking for safe, effective alternatives to medications for your mood and anxiety symptoms?

The use of neuroscience technologies has enhanced the understanding and treatment of complex conditions and insufficient response to treatment. Yellowbrick’s Center for Clinical Neuroscience has developed a research-based Neuromodulation IOP. Following a neuroscience informed assessment, Yellowbrick employs an individually prescribed bundle of neuromodulation technologies designed for achieving maximal symptom relief and supporting optimal brain health and healing.
