Bio
I am a member and former Chair of the Department of Health Promotion, in the School of Public Health, in the Faculty of Medicine at Tel-Aviv University, former director, and founder of the Integrative Medicine Center & Research Laboratory at the Tel- Aviv Medical Center, and Head of the Health Promotion Unit in the Integrated Cancer Prevention Center. My training is in cellular biology, integrative medicine, intervention research, and health promotion science. I received the Outstanding Israeli Researcher for Complementary and Integrative Medicine award. The goal of my research is to unravel the biology, physiology, and psychology of health promotion approaches and translate findings into interventions that effectively target salutogenic mechanisms underpinning the biopsychology of well-being. I initiated the "lasting change" study and will co-lead this project in my current role as visiting scholar, at Prof. Michael Snyder's Lab, a global leader in precision health at Stanford University.
