Wendy F. Sternberg, Ph.D. (University of California, Los Angeles) Labmate, 1990-1993
Currently Assoc. Prof. of Psychology, Haverford College wsternbe@haverford.edu http://www.haverford.edu/psych/wsternberg/
John Liebeskind's last graduate student. Still a close friend and continuing collaborator, Wendy was co-discoverer of the female-specific analgesic mechanism in 1993. Wendy has the greatest life in the world, living exactly 100 yards from her office, with a daycare centre halfway in-between. The Sternberg Laboratory at Haverford College is currently studying the effects of neonatal surgical pain on adult pain sensitivity.
