B. Jill Venton is a professor of chemistry at University of Virginia, where she serves as the department chair since 2019.
[1] Venton's research focuses on developing analytical chemistry methods to enable detection of molecules in the brain.
[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.
