Robert

Burr "Bob" Livingston (October

9, 1918 – April 26, 2002) was an activist. Livingston

was born on October 9, 1918 in Boston. He completed his undergraduate studies

(in 1940), medical degree (in

1944), and residency at Stanford University. As

a Naval Reserve officer, Livingston served in Okinawa and

earned a Bronze Star during World War II. His experience as a physician in a United States Navy hospital

during the Atomic

bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki lead him to a lifelong opposition

to nuclear arms. He was co-founder and President of the San Diego

chapter of Physicians for Social Responsibility. After the war he joined

the Yale University college

of medicine as a professor of physiology. He served on the faculty of the University

of California, Los Angeles from 1952 to 1960.[1] In other teaching appointments at Stanford

and Harvard he also

taught pathology, anatomy, and psychiatry. In the 1950s he served as physician to a Scripps

Institution of Oceanography expedition.[3] He was appointed Scientific Director of

the National Institute of Mental Health and

the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Blindness during

the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations. He advised James Humes, the navy pathologist who performed the autopsy on John F. Kennedy, and based on his personal experience and

observations became a skeptic of the "Lone gunman theory".After

his time at the National Institutes of

Health, in 1964 Livingston founded the neuroscience department, the

first of its kind in the world, at the newly built University

of California, San Diego campus. He served as chairman of the

department until 1970, as professor until 1989, and as professor emeritus until

his death in 2002. His best known research was in the computer mapping and

imaging of the human brain. His interest

in the brain also extended to questions of cognition, consciousness, emotions,

and spirituality. He was active in the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War,

which won the Nobel Peace Prize in

1985. In 1988 Livingston met and befriended the Dalai Lama, for whom he served as a science advisor.[3] He died in 2002 at the Thornton Hospital in San Diego, California.

Livingston was an avid mountain climbing and hiking friend of Robert S. McNamara.
