Donnell Creel is a research professor emeritus of ophthalmology at the University of Utah School of Medicine.[1]

Early life and education

Creel was born in Kansas City, Missouri, United States. He received B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Missouri–Kansas City and earned a Ph.D. in neuropsychology from the University of Utah in 1968.[1]

Career

Creel worked for over three decades as a Career Research Scientist in the Veterans Administration and collaborated with the National Institutes of Health. His research includes electrophysiological and anatomical studies of the visual and auditory systems, including electroretinograms, electro-oculograms, and visually evoked potentials.[2][3][4]

He published extensively in peer-reviewed journals and contributed chapters to clinical neurology handbooks.
