Edythe London, Ph.D.

Biography

Dr. London received her Ph.D. in Pharmacology from the University of Maryland and  postdoctoral training at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Before coming to UCLA in 2001, she was the Director of the Brain Imaging Center for the National Institute on Drug Abuse and held faculty appointments at the University of Maryland and Johns Hopkins Schools of Medicine. Dr. London is a Distinguished Professor-in-Residence in the Departments of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences and Molecular and Medical Pharmacology. Her work focuses on the use of neuroimaging to study neural circuitry underlying self-control and behaviors related to addiction.

She has received numerous awards, including the Nathan B. Eddy Lifetime Achievement Award from the College on Problems of Drug Dependence (2023), the McLean Hospital Women in Science Lectureship (2020), the H.W. Magoun Lectureship at UCLA (2019), and the Scientific Freedom & Responsibility Award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (2011).
