Walter F. Heiligenberg (January 31, 1938 – September 8, 1994) is best known for his contribution to neuroethology through his work on one of the best neurologically understood behavioral patterns in vertebrate, Eigenmannia (Zupanc and Bullock 2006). This weakly electric fish and the neural basis for its jamming avoidance response behavioral process was the main focus of his research, and is fully explored in his 1991 book, “Neural Nets in Electric Fish.” As an international scientist, he worked alongside other neuroethologists and researchers to further explain animal behavior in a comprehensive manner and “through the application of a strict analytical and quantitative method” (Zupanc 2004). The advancements within neuroethology today are still largely due to his influences, as his life was dedicated to researching that which could be applicable to “all complex nervous systems” and he “() the general principles of nature” (Autrum 1994). ==Life and death== Heiligenberg was born in Berlin, Germany, but moved to Munster soon afterwards (Autrum 1994). He then spent part of his early adulthood in Munich and Seewiesen before ultimately moving to San Diego, California, in 1972. Heiligenberg was killed in the crash of USAir Flight 427 on September 8, 1994,〔"(List of Crash Victims )." ''Wilmington Morning Star''. Saturday September 10, 1994. 4A. Google News (28 of 49). Retrieved on October 3, 2009.〕 while on his way to deliver a lecture at the University of Pittsburgh (Leaders in Their Fields 1994).
