Computational cognitive scientist studying the learning mechanisms underlying changes in mental health, currently at the Department of Neuroimaging King's College London.
My research focus is understanding the shifts in learning observed under two conditions that diverge from typical adult cognition: Development and the influence of psychedelics. In both cases, neural plasticity is increased, reward circuitry shows functional modifications, and learning is more flexible.
Before moving to London, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow working with Catherine Hartley at NYU. I have a PhD from the Sagol School of Neuroscience at Tel Aviv University, where I was supervised by Talma Handler.
