Jane Stewart honored

Recently Jane Stewart was honored by her institution for 45 years of scientific research.

The event was organized by Harriet de Wit, a 1981 PhD who is now a professor at the University of Chicago. “Dr. Stewart is one of the most creative and respected scientists in the area of behavioral neuroscience,” de Wit wrote us by email. “Her contributions include original ideas as well as rigorous experimental research on a wide range of topics. “In addition to her scientific and educational achievements, she is a warm, enthusiastic and engaging person who has touched the lives of all of us through her friendship and sense of humour.”
Dr. Stewart has had a lasting impact on learning theory, especially as it pertains to drugs of abuse. Anyone who knows her and her work realizes how deserving she is of such recognition.
