Dear Professor Guru ludahai,
jfuh has already pointed out the answer. Need I to say anything more?

3. Where did Dr. Joseph get his PhD and what was it in? |
Dr. Joseph obtained his Ph.D. from UHS/The Chicago Medical School, and completed his training at the VAMC/Yale University Medical School Seizure Unit, Department of Neurology, Neuropsychology Section. Joseph completed the Ph.D. program, including his Ph.D. dissertation in two years, and by graduation had more scientific publications than most of the faculty.

Excerpts about Rhawn Joseph, Ph.D. from the website:
(Begin excerpts)
Dr. Joseph began his scholarly studies as a boy and first began conducting scientific research when he was still a teenager in high school and later was given laboratory space, equipment, funding, and animals, to conduct his own studies by the powers-that-be, even though he had not yet earned an advanced degree. Joseph graduated in the top 3% of his class, and with a GPA of 3.83.
Dr. Joseph obtained his Ph.D. from UHS/The Chicago Medical School, and completed his training at the VAMC/Yale University Medical School Seizure Unit, Department of Neurology, Neuropsychology Section. Joseph completed the Ph.D. program, including his Ph.D. dissertation in two years, and by graduation had more scientific publications than most of the faculty.
Dr. Joseph's first scientific monograph, The Neuropsychology of Development, was published in 1982 and generated world wide attention, and was translated and published by foreign scientific journals and reprinted by numerous universities and medical schools including Harvard.
Dr. Joseph pioneered research on early environmental influences on the brain and behavior, and demonstrated conclusively, the profound effects of the environment and/or hormonal influences on learning, memory, intelligence, perception, arousal, attention, sex differences, and the developing brain. Indeed, until Dr. Joseph proved otherwise, the vast majority of scientists dismissed the role of early experience as a factor in intellectual development and learning and memory, claiming instead, for example, that subjects reared under deprived conditions make more errors on problem solving tasks because they are "more exploratory."
Dr. Joseph demonstrated that rather than "more exploratory" deprived animals were "less exploratory" and more impulsive and had significant difficulty inhibiting irrelevant and self-destructive behavior. Dr. Joseph demonstrated that not only did these animals have significant learning deficits, but once a task was learned, they immediately began forgetting, such that learning as well as short term and long term memory were profoundly effected by deprived rearing conditons.
Until Dr. Joseph demonstated otherwise, scientists, as well as the media, and professional women describing themselves as "radical feminists" argued that there were no sex differences in thinking and behavior, and that what some claimed to be sex differences were "sexist stereotypes." Dr. Joseph demonstrated that the same exact sex differences can be found in other species, that these sex differences are due to the presence or absence of hormones such as testostereone during the critical period of brain differentiation, and that when females and males are reared in an enriched or deprived environment, that males continued to outperform females on spatial measures of cognition, such as maze learning.
Hence, by the close of the 1970s, and before he had obtained an advanced degree, Joseph had demonstrated conclusively that enriched rearing conditions significantly improve learning, memory, and intellectual functioning; and that sex differences in learning, are maintained regardless of rearing experiences and are neurologically and hormonally based.
Moreover, Dr. Joseph was among the first to demonstrate neural plasticity in the primate brain, and was the first to demonstrate that atrophied primate brain cells could be functionally regenerated and could regain lost perceptual and functional capabilities (Joseph & Casagrande, 1978, 1980; Casagrande & Joseph, 1978, 1980); and in the 1990s discovered that mammalian brain cells continue to be generated during adulthood and have the capacity to divide.
Dr. Joseph is one of the founders of the field of human developmental neuropsychology, and in 1982, he published a neurological and developmental theory of cognition, emotion, memory, and language that has been experimentally verified and widely adopted.
In his 1982 monograph, featured on the cover of the Journal of Clinical Psychology, he presented a comprehensive new theory on the neurological organization and development of language, and introduced the concept of "limbic language," and throughout the 1980s provided experimental support for his convergence-gap filling language axis theory of speech, and which has now been repeatedy experimentally verified and which numerous scientists now champion as their own.
