Education
Venton received her BS in Chemistry from University of Delaware in 1998 and her PhD in Chemistry from University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill in 2003.[1][2] She was an NIH postdoctoral fellow at University of Michigan from 2003 to 2005.
Research
Venton joined the Department of Chemistry at University of Virginia as an assistant professor in 2005, received tenure and was promoted to an associate professor in 2011, and was promoted to full professor in 2016.[2] Venton develops analytical tools such as carbon-fiber microelectrodes for sensing molecules in the brain[3] to achieve real-time monitoring of neurotransmitters to help understand the brain functions both under normal physiological conditions and in neurological disorders.[4][5][6]
