Omer Revah - DVM PhD
Principal investigator
Omer is an Assistant Professor in the Koret School of Veterinary Medicine at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He completed his PhD training in physiology and computational neuroscience in the Hebrew University before moving to Stanford, California to complete his postdoctoral training , where he pioneered human, stem cell-based methodologies in vivo to study developmental disorders of the brain
Shai Fuchs - BA, MSc
PhD student
Shai received her undergraduate degree in Psychology and Philosophy (Magna Cum Laude) from Tel Aviv University and her MSc in Clinical Neuroscience (with distinction) at UCL. In her thesis, she used GWAS methodology and genetic meta-analysis to explore genetic risk factors for delirium tremens, a neuropsychiatric syndrome. In the lab she implements stem cell technologies, CRISPR cloning and transcriptomics to build better models for neuropsychiatric disorders
Lilach received her undergraduate degree in Nutrition science and her MSc in Biochemistry at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem where she explored the effect of narcotic-free khat extracts in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. In the lab she uses electrophysiology and transcriptomics to understand how neuronal gene expression changes during human cortex development.
