I acquired my academic research training at Bar Ilan University in the Department of Molecular Biology.
The subject of my doctoral thesis was "Studies on the functioning of the p51 ferT and p94 fer kinases in cell lines".
During the research I experimented with a variety of methods in molecular
biology as well as in cryobiology.
Upon graduation, I joined the in vitro fertilization laboratory at the"Assaf Harofeh-Shamir" medical center and was the deputy director of the laboratory.
I presented papers at conferences and taught post graduated doctors at
Tel Aviv University and the Technion
Today I manage the fertility (sperm) and in vitro fertilization laboratories at the"Shaare Zedek medical center - Bikur Cholim campus" and also serve as a senior
