Antony "Tony" Oliver Ward Stretton, Ph.D. is a neuroscientist, faculty member of the Neuroscience Training Program, and the John Bascom Professor of Zoology at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.^[3] He is married to fellow scientist, Philippa Claude, daughter of Albert Claude.

Stretton worked with Vernon M. Ingram first in the United Kingdom at the Cavendish Laboratory of the University of Cambridge then in the United States at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as well as with Edward A.
