​Since 2000 I am an independent principal investigator at Hadassah Medical Center. Previously I developed novel functional MRI methodologies to assess vascular responses to physiological stimuli- hypercapnia and hyperoxia. During the last twelve years, I have chosen to focus my research on the liver, a multi-functional organ with its unique role and blood supply system. Currently I am a Senior Lecturer at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. I was recently selected to be the chairman and to establish the Wohl National Center for Translational Medicine at Hadassah Hebrew University Medical Center. I run a research lab that focuses on studying tissue interactions that modulate primary and metastatic liver cancer progression, combing various methodologies including mouse models, imaging and molecular biology. Additional project in the lab focus on understanding the process of liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy.
