Vice President,
Photo Documentarian and Co-Founder
Dr. Ron Cohn,
has been with the project from its inception and shares Dr.
Patterson's life-long commitment to the gorillas. Ron serves
as an authority figure for Koko and his presence is an integral
part of their daily routine. His award winning pictures and
films of the gorillas have helped to make the Gorilla Foundation
a well known organization around the world. Prior to co-founding
TGF/Koko.org, Dr. Cohn received a PhD from the University of
Illinois. He was a cell biologist at the Stanford Departments
of Medicine and Pediatrics and did much of the initial ground
breaking research in genetic engineering and membrane structure.
He also discovered that adult cells make hyaluronic acid from
glucosamine and led the way for glucosamine treatment for arthritis. |
