Marc R. Freeman, Ph.D.

• Professor, Vollum Institute
• Director and Senior Scientist, Vollum Institute
• Neuroscience Graduate Program, School of Medicine

Marc Freeman is director of the Vollum Institute. He earned his B.S. in Biology from Eastern Connecticut State University in 1993. He carried out his doctoral training in the laboratory of John Carlson at Yale University and obtained his Ph.D. in Biology in 1999. Freeman trained as a postdoctoral associate with Chris Q. Doe at the University of Oregon from 1999–2004. He started his laboratory in the Department of Neurobiology at The University of Massachusetts Medical School in 2004, focusing on glia-neuron interactions in the healthy and diseased brain. In 2016, Freeman joined the Vollum Institute.

Neurons are not alone in the nervous system; glial cells constitute the majority of the cells in the human brain. Despite their abundance, surprisingly little is known about how glia develop or function in the mature nervous system. The Freeman Lab uses the fruit fly Drosophila as a model to explore fundamental aspects of glial cell biology. Defining the precise roles that glia play will be a crucial step if we wish to understand how the nervous system is assembled, functions to drive animal behavior, and is maintained in a healthy state for the life of an animal.

Mark P. Freeman

I am pursuing three distinct, yet interrelated, lines of research.  The first of these, to which I have devoted much of my attention throughout my career, is philosophically-oriented work in what has come to be known as “narrative psychology”—which in the present context refers to that portion of psychology which looks toward narratives (e.g., autobiographies, memoirs, life histories) to explore such topics as autobiographical memory, personal identity, and the cultural fashioning of personal experience.  Of special relevance in this context is my book Hindsight: The Promise and Peril of Looking Backward (Oxford, 2010), which explores the idea that there is much that we can know about ourselves only in retrospect: looking backward over the personal past, we can frequently see what we either could not or would not see earlier on as well as discern the contours of our unfolding life stories. Perilous though the process may sometimes be, it is also one of great promise, allowing us not only to see the possible errors of our ways but to transcend them. Also relevant in this context is Do I Look at You with Love?  Reimagining the Story of Dementia (Brill | Sense, 2021), which explores my mother’s dementia over the course of some 12 years, and my co-edited volume with Hanna Meretoja, The Use and Abuse of Stories: New Directions in Narrative Hermeneutics (Oxford, 2023).  

The second line of research I have pursued in recent years seeks to chart those regions of human experience that take us beyond the self and, on some level perhaps, beyond culture.  Aesthetic and religious experience figure prominently in this line of inquiry as does “transcendent” experience (through art, nature, etc.) more generally.  While the first area of research focuses largely on the category of the self, this second area focuses more on the category of the “Other,” i.e., that which draws us out of ourselves and into the world.  Most relevant in this context is my (2014) book The Priority of the Other:  Thinking and Living Beyond the Self (Oxford, 214), an in-depth exploration of the category, and place, of the Other in psychological life.

My third area of research concerns what I have come to call the “poetic” dimension of both psychological experience and psychological theory.  In regard to the former, I am particularly interested in the imaginative processes by which people give meaning to, or find meaning in, experience.  In regard to the latter, my primary aim has been to fashioning modes of theorizing about experience that broaden the meaning of psychological “science” and that, in turn, serve to integrate scientific and humanistic inquiry.  Taking this set of ideas one step further, I have also become interested in the project of re-imagining psychology, or at least a portion of it, as part of the arts and humanities and thereby broadening the scope of the discipline. Central to this endeavor is my recent book, Toward the Psychological Humanities: A Modest Manifesto for the Future of Psychology (Routledge, 2024).

MARC FREEMAN, PhD

(Co-Founder) Vollum Institute at OHSU

Dr. Marc Freeman is the Director of the Vollum Institute at Oregon Health and Sciences University, having moved from the University of Massachusetts Medical School in 2016 where he was Vice-Chairman of Neurobiology. Since 2003, his laboratory has focused on neuron-glia signaling after injury, in particular how neurons undergo auto-destruction and signal to non-neuronal cells for timely clearance, and how these events modulate disease pathology. The Freeman lab was the first to discover SARM1 as a potent, axon-intrinsic, pro-degenerative factor. Dr. Freeman’s research also aims to understand in molecular terms the basic functions of glial cells during nervous system assembly and pruning, neural circuit maintenance and physiological function, and ultimately animal behavior.  Dr. Freeman completed his BS at Eastern Connecticut State University (1993), received his PhD at Yale University working with John Carlson (1999) and carried out his postdoctoral studies at the University of Oregon with Chris Q Doe (1999-03). Freeman was an Alfred P Sloan Research Fellow, Smith Family New Investigator, HHMI Early Career Scientist and HHMI Investigator.

College of the Holy Cross Professor of Psychology Distinguished Professor of Ethics and Society

Contact Information: College of the Holy Cross 1 College Street, Worcester, MA 01610

Email:  [email protected] Phone:  508-793-3081 Office:  Beaven Hall 331 Web:   http://college.holycross.edu/faculty/mfreeman/

Mark Freeman received his B.A. in Psychology from the State University of New York at Binghamton (now Binghamton University) in 1977 and his Ph.D. in Human Development from the University of Chicago in 1986. He is currently Professor of Psychology and Distinguished Professor of Ethics and Society at the College of the Holy Cross.

His most recent book, Hindsight: The Promise and Peril of Looking Backward (Oxford, 2010), explores the idea that there is much that we can know about ourselves only in retrospect: looking backward over the personal past, we can frequently see what we either could not or would not see earlier on as well as discern the contours of our unfolding life stories. Perilous though the process may sometimes be, it is also one of great promise, allowing us not only to see the possible errors of our ways but to transcend them. Hindsight therefore serves as a vitally important source of self-understanding, wisdom, and moral growth.

Freeman is also the author of Rewriting the Self: History, Memory, Narrative (Routledge, 1993), which received the Alpha Sigma Nu National Book Award in 1994; Finding the Muse: A Sociopsychological Inquiry into the Conditions of Artistic Creativity (Cambridge, 1994), which was designated an Outstanding Academic Book by Choice magazine in 1995; and numerous articles on memory, self, autobiographical narrative, and the psychology of art and religion. He is currently at work on a book titled The Priority of the Other: Attention, Devotion, Transcendence, which seeks to complement his longstanding interest in the self with an in-depth exploration of the category, and place, of the other in psychological life.
