Warren Meck (17 November 1956 – 21 January 2020)[2] was an US-American professor in psychology and neuroscience at Duke University. His main field of interest was Interval-Timing mechanisms and subjective time perception.[3] He was editor in chief in the journal of Timing & Time Perception.[4] He postulated that time is created in a dedicated module in the circadian internal biological clock.[5] Meck has over 19,000 citations in Google Scholar.[6]
