I'm a medical doctor and academic researcher in the fields of Neurology and Neuroscience. Over the last few years, I've conducted several studies combining clinical and theoretical aspects of neuroscience. Currently, I'm a PhD student in Prof. Noam Sobel's lab, Neurobiology dept, Weizmann Institute of Science.
I'm interested in complex cognitive functions of the human brain. I'm fascinated by the way we think, feel and imagine, and its relation to brain anatomy and physiology.
