Warren H. Meck (17 November 1956 – 21 January 2020) was an American Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Duke University. He is known for his interest in Interval-Timing mechanisms and subjective time perception.[2] He was the editor-in-chief of the journal of Timing & Time Perception.[3] One of his researches was postulating that time is created in a dedicated module in the Circadian internal biological clock. He was regarded as one of the influential figures in the field of timing and time perception.[4]
Education
Meck started studying in the Pennsylvania State University but later completed his education, obtaining his BA in Psychology at the University of California in San Diego. While studying, he was also writing. He completed and published his debut research work in 1979. Meck further went to Brown University, and began his doctoral education with Russell Church as his advisor, thus, graduated with a PhD degree in 1982. Meck began full-time work as a research scientist in his alma mater, Brown University. He moved to Columbia University and worked as an assistant professor in 1985 until his promotion as an associate professor in 1990. Following his anointment, he became a full professor in 2001 after working in the Department of Psychology at Duke University in 1994.[4]
Career
Meck has won many awards for his various contributions to the field of sciences including grants from the National Institute of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the Wellcome Trust. Others include James McKeen Cattell Dissertation Award in 1982), an award recognition from the Eastern Psychological Association (EPA) in 1994, and the James McKeen Cattell Sabbatical Fellowship in 2002.[5] His works has appeared in notable research magazines and journals such as The New York Times and the Saturday Night Live.
Meck's work in the field of timing and time perception had for about half a century, and was seen as the pioneering foundation of the studies. He formed the interval timing community "TIMELY" as well as the Timing & Time Perception journal. Based on this, he was among the people who founded the Timing Research Forum (TRF).
His research was praised as a "creative empirical and theoretical research, grounded in independent thought and openness to new and sometimes disruptive ideas, led to many conceptual leaps that strongly shaped the shifts in the zeitgeist."
Memorial and legacy
John C. Neill, an Associate Professor of Psychology at the Long Island University in the United States praised Meck as a "uniquely self-reliant." Patricia Agostino and Diego Golombek, lecturers at the National University of Quilmes in Argentina said he was "an excellent scientist and a truly exceptional person."[6]
Meck was married to Christians, and died on January 21, 2020.
