Metabolic physiology
Neurobiology

Dr. Waterson received his undergraduate degree in biology from Washington University in St Louis and his PhD in cellular and molecular biology from the University of Michigan, where he studied the role of sensory input on metabolic physiology and lifespan. He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Yale University studying the neural regulation of cortical development and function. He began his teaching career at Chattanooga State Community College in the Life Sciences Department, where he helped develop the first undergraduate research course for life sciences students at the College. He has been at Georgia State University since January 2019 where he is a part of the Anatomy and Physiology lecture group and has served as a Georgia State Undergraduate Research Conference (GSURC) judge, and a GSU Atlanta Science Festival volunteer.
