Biosketch:

Dr. Theresa White completed her Master's degree at Oxford University and her Doctorate at the University of Warwick.  After graduate school, she returned to the United States to work at the Smell and Taste Disorders Clinic at the SUNY Upstate Medical Center in Syracuse, NY.  She is also a faculty member in the Department of Neuroscience and Physiology.  In 2001, she joined the faculty of the Psychology Department at Le Moyne College, where she teaches a number of courses, including Research Methods, Brain and Behavior, and Sensation and Perception, to undergraduate students.  Dr. White's primary research interests are in the areas of learning, memory, and sensory psychology as they relate to chemosensation.  Most of her research is in the psychophysical study of human olfactory cognition and flavor perception, including clinical aspects of olfactory and gustatory dysfunction.  Dr. White was recognized by Le Moyne College with the Rev. Richard M. McKeon, S.J. Scholar of the Year Award in 2009.
