DAVID HORNUNG NAMED PISKOR LECTURER AT SLU

CANTON -- Dana Professor of Biology David E. Hornung has been 
named the Frank P. Piskor Faculty Lecturer for 2001. Next spring, 
Hornung will deliver a campus lecture on the topic "How the Nose 
Knows: The Relationship between Human Nasal Anatomy and Olfactory 
Ability."
	The Piskor Faculty Lectureship was established in 1979 to 
encourage original and continued research among St. Lawrence faculty 
members, to recognize and honor distinguished scholarship and to 
afford the opportunity for faculty to share their learning with the 
academic community.
	Hornung, a member of the St. Lawrence faculty since 1969, 
earned his bachelor's degree from Geneva College, his master's degree 
from Kent State University and the Ph.D. from the SUNY Health Science 
Center in Syracuse. He has done extensive research on the senses of 
taste and smell, and is also on the faculty of the SUNY Health Science 
Center in Syracuse, where he is a researcher.
	For the Piskor Lecture, Hornung plans to conduct further research 
on the relationship between nasal anatomy and olfactory ability, which 
has not heretofore been formally tested.
