Ada Eban-Rothschild is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Michigan. Her research focuses on the neuronal circuitry involved in sleep-wake states and sleep-preparatory behaviors. She employs innovative techniques such as in-vivo calcium imaging with head-mounted miniature microscopes, fiber-photometry, optogenetics, chemogenetics, and circuit tracing, combined with ethologically relevant behavioral manipulations to uncover pathways involved in sleep and arousal. Her representative publications include works on the regulation of sleep-wake behaviors by VTA dopaminergic neurons and the mechanisms underlying emotional states in relation to sleep. Eban-Rothschild leads the Neuronal Mechanisms of Sleep and Wakefulness Lab that emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach to understanding sleep-related processes in rodents, contributing significantly to the field of biopsychology and neuroscience.
