E. Leslie Cameron is Professor of Psychological Science at Carthage College and Courtesy Associate Professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She earned a B.A. with distinction from McGill University in Montreal, Canada; an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Rochester; and a Certificat Supérieur and Diplôme de Phonétique Appliquée à la Langue Française from the Université de la Sorbonne Nouvelle in Paris, France. She was a Howard Hughes Medical Institute research associate and adjunct professor at New York University and a visiting assistant professor at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. She was awarded a National Research Service Award postdoctoral fellowship and a National Institutes of Health postdoctoral fellowship at NYU.

She teaches courses in cognitive and perceptual psychology and regularly involves undergraduate students in her research. She has embraced the Students as Partners model and recently co-authored two reflectionarticles with students and international colleagues on their partnership experiences. She was a Wagner Teaching Fellow from 2018 to 2020. In that position she collaborated with students and faculty colleagues to apply Decoding the Disciplines in conjunction with eye-movement recording to better understand what experts do when they read graphical data. The goal was to elucidate the process and teach it more effectively to students. Her current disciplinary research with students involves studying human olfaction, particularly the effect of Covid-19 on sense of smell, short-term and long-term memory for odors, and the effects of pregnancy on the sense of smell.
