Question: What type of details about theodore holmes bullock can be gathered from the following bio? Bio: theodore holmes bullock -lrb- 16 may 1915 -- 20 december 2005 -rrb- is one of the founding fathers of neuroethology . during a career spanning nearly seven decades , this american academic was esteemed both as a pioneering and influential neuroscientist , examining the physiology and evolution of the nervous system across organizational levels , and as a champion of the comparative approach , studying species from nearly all major animal groups -- coelenterates , annelids , arthropods , echinoderms , molluscs , and chordates . bullock discovered the pit organ in pit vipers and electroreceptors in weakly electric fish , as well as other electrosensory animals . his work on the jamming avoidance response in electric fish -lrb- work later carried on by walter heiligenberg -rrb- is an excellent example of how motor programs are integrated with incoming sensory information when generating a behavior pattern in response to a stimulus . bullock appealed to the scientific community to look beyond established paradigms in neuroscience , as well as to consider the ecology of an animal when endeavoring to understand its nervous system . as he once wrote , '' neuroscience is part of biology , more specifically of zoology , and it suffers tunnel vision unless continuous with ethology , ecology , and evolution '' . in his quest to go beyond a descriptive account of the nervous system , bullock studied many different and unrelated , species . he believed that this '' comparative approach '' would reveal both general principles of the nervous system , and offer insights into which nervous system properties -lrb- anatomical , physiological , and chemical -rrb- were relevant to observed differences in species-specific traits , as well as which specific traits were relevant to observed differences in nervous systems . his resulting discoveries helped explain various properties of nervous systems . in one influential review he wrote , '' comparative neuroscience is likely to reach insights so novel as to constitute revolutions...
