Lieneke com­plet­ed an under­grad­u­ate Bachelor’s degree in psy­chobi­ol­o­gy and a cog­ni­tive neu­ro­science research mas­ter in the Nether­lands. As a research assis­tant, she stud­ied the links between brain dopamine and gam­bling behav­ior. Lieneke com­plet­ed her PhD at the Don­ders Insti­tute, which focused on ‘Break­ing bad habits’, by inves­ti­gat­ing the effects of phar­ma­co­log­i­cal and behav­ioral inter­ven­tions on fron­tos­tri­atal pro­cess­ing. Since April 2017, Lieneke is work­ing as a post­doc­tor­al researcher in the O’Brain Project, where she stud­ies the role of dopamine and hemi­spher­ic asym­me­try in obesity.
