Welcome!

California, 2007

I am a Group Leader of Decision and Awareness Group at the German Primate Center.

From 2009 to 2010, I was a Senior Research Fellow in the lab of Prof. Richard Andersen, Caltech, and prior to 2009 I was a Postdoctoral Scholar in the same lab.

Previously, I was a Ph.D. student at the Vision Research lab, Dept. of BioMedical Engineering, Technion, Israel, and the Schepens Eye Research Institute, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA. My thesis advisors were Prof. Moshe Gur (Technion) and Prof. D. Max Snodderly (SERI, currently at University of Texas, Austin).

In the course of my undergraduate studies at Tel Aviv University I worked with Prof. Mark L. Shik on the neurophysiology of single hindbrain neurons during transition from rest to locomotion, evoked by electrical stimulation of mesencephalic locomotor region in salamander.
