Career
Stewart earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology and biology from Queen's University in 1956, and PhD in psychology in 1959 from the University of London, England.[1][2] She then started working for Ayerst Pharmaceuticals in Montreal and subsequently joined Concordia University in 1962,[3] where she served as chair of the Department of Psychology (1969–1974) and director of the Center for Studies in Behavioral Neurobiology (1990–1997).[1] She served on many grant review committees and on the editorial boards of 11 peer-reviewed scientific journals.[1]
Research
Stewart has made seminal contributions to different areas of research, such as conditioned drug effects,[4][5] the motivational effects of drugs,[6] circadian rhythms,[7] antidepressant and antipsychotic drug action,[8][9] and sexual behavior.[10][11]
Honors
Stewart was awarded an honorary degree from Queen's University and is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Psychological Association, the Canadian Psychological Association, and the Royal Society of Canada.[1] She also received the highest civilian honor in her country, being appointed Officer in the Order of Canada in 2007.[1] A special issue of the journal Biological Psychiatry was dedicated to her on the occasion of her retirement in 2008.[1]
