Ilana Witten is a neuroscientist who studies how the brain learns and makes decisions in response to rewards. She uses a variety of methods, such as optogenetics, electrophysiology, and computational modeling, to investigate the striatum and other reward circuits.
Ilana B. Witten is an American neuroscientist and professor of psychology and neuroscience at Princeton University. Witten studies the mesolimbic pathway, with a focus on the striatal neural circuit mechanisms driving reward learning and decision making.
Ilana Witten is a professor at the Princeton Neuroscience Institute, where she studies how the striatum mediates reward learning and decision making. She uses a range of techniques, such as optogenetics, electrophysiology, and computational modeling, to test hypotheses about the circuit level mechanisms underlying these processes.
Ilana B. Witten is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Princeton University who studies the role of dopamine in cognition and behavior. She received a Young Investigator Grant from the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation to investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics of dopamine neurons and their relation to working memory deficits in schizophrenia.
