Bio
I am a 5th year PhD student in the Systems Biology Graduate Program at Harvard, working on biofuels and mRNA metabolism. Prior to coming to Harvard, I went to the Technion Institute of Technology I grew up in Israel, while spending a few years in the US before high school. I like traveling and being active. In particular I like basketball, tennnis, gym, and skiing. And of course, I love eating.
Research Interests
