Why Is Susan Schenk Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Susan Schenk, sometimes Lovell-Schenk, is a New Zealand psychology academic. She is currently a full professor at the Victoria University of Wellington. Academic career After a 1982 PhD titled The substrate for prefrontal cortical self-stimulation: a psychophysical investigation at Concordia University, Schenk completed an NSERC funded post/doctoral position with Peter Milner at McGill University. She then moved to Texas A&M University where she moved through the ranks from assistant professor to professor. In 2001 she moved to the Victoria University of Wellington, as a full professor.
