I have completed a PhD in Tel-Aviv University (School of Psychological Sciences) under the supervision of Prof. Galit Yovel. During consecutive years, I conducted postdoctoral research with Prof. Geraint Rees (University College London, UK), Prof. Moshe Bar (Bar-Ilan University, Israel) and Prof. Lionel Naccache (Institut du Cerveau et de la Moelle Epinière, Paris, France). In 2017 I joined Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Center as a faculty member.
